Description
Where Kelsey meets Sheffield Street the manhole area is being raised, while the curb side is sinking lower and lower each year.
During the summer when we take our truck camper out, we are about to tip over towards the telephone pole. This pole connects to the electrical pole across the street which has been compensated by an car collision.
During the winter, our cars are required to dip further than normal when driving into the curbside across our driveway. Oftentimes, these are fearful times when we are placed into dangerous positions from the dipping of the street.
This was reported to the city about two years ago when the city was most cooperative by paving the breakage where the driveway meets the street. Now, the time has come for more street work to prevent a major catastrophe from happening to those who drive in and out of the driveway.
I look forward in hearing from the public works department, MARK MORIARTY, whom I spoke to years ago about the street issue on Kelsey.
Thank you in advance!

The month on April is almost here and the last response above is from February. In addition, I have left messages at your office for any update on a plan for fixing the pathway from our driveway onto the street.
Soon, our camper will be loaded onto our truck and out we go nervously into the road from our driveway ... tipping towards the pole from the steep climb caused by the upheaval in the road. Daily we confront these road conditions a few times every day as we drive out and back into our driveway.
Let us know what will be done temporarily or definitively ASAP. I believe I have waited long enough for a response with a plan for our safety.
Thank you!
