Description

Hello. We live at 108 Sylvan Street, which is on the corner of Winship Street. The asphalt sidewalk between the top of Winship Street (on the odd side) and the boundary line of our property, which abuts the property at 9 Winship Street is severely uneven. There are several dips and pits and raised areas, especially in the area in front of our driveway. Walking on this section of the sidewalk has proven to be very dangerous. I have fallen because of the uneven surface and I have seen neighbors stumble and fall because of it as well. Several people who use this sidewalk are older and may already have difficulty walking, so this stretch of sidewalk definitely poses a threat to their and our safety. I would like to respectfully request that someone from the City does an inspection and takes steps to correct the uneven surface of this sidewalk. I have attached photos, but I believe an in-person inspection would be more beneficial, as pictures can't accurately capture the unevenness of the surface. I emailed Mr. Knox and Vidic on September 18, 2023, but unfortunately I have not received a reply.
Thank you very much in advance for any assistance you can provide.
