Ridley Park needs to do a better job of enforcing the code for sidewalks. Lately I have noticed that a lot of homes have been sold. But the sidewalks weren't repaired or replaced. The house received the U &O, before settlement is made the sidewalks needed to be fixed first. Now the new owner will be stuck with this bill to repair or replace the sidewalk.

Ken,
The new owners will only be stuck with the bill if someone in borough government decides to actually enforce the codes. Which doesn't seem likely to happen anytime soon.

Lansowne sidewalks are atrocious!! You can't walk without tripping or stumbling from one end of Stewart Av to the other.
We used to be able to take our dog to Sycamore PK for excercise,but they've become so narrow & hazardous, even one person can't navigate.
In January,he(dog) started limping & vet said torn ACL could've happened just stepping on an uneven sidewk.or gravel..surgery was not cheap & trying to contain him through 6, then 5' of snow was no fun either.
I've sprained my ankle & twisted it too numerous times to even count.
For the high taxes the borough collects, it is shocking & appalling,the condition of sidewalks in general,not to mention the backing up of sewers every time we have a heavy rainfall. (Oh, the smell!!!)
