Description

The contractor building on the corner of E Merrimack & Fayette St. has blocked 6 to 12" of the sidewalk with the fencing.
The fence is affixed to the sidewalk not inside the plot where the construction is in progress. There's sufficient room to secure the fence off the sidewalk.

From my point of view, walking that block almost daily, the side walk was not in bad repair prior to the work starting. I can walk, gingerly, along the side walk on Fayette St., hugging the fence. Or, I walk on the street not 15' from a busy intersection.

The Fayette St. sidewalk is impassable. There's sufficient sidewalk space on E. Merrimack. The Fayette St. sidewalk was not in poor condition prior to contractor's actions
