Description

This is an add-on to issue id 6638416, which was closed out by the Mayor's Office. I didn't see a way to respond or re-open that issue, but I'd like to clarify that there is already a dropped curb across the front of the property. It was there when the land was purchased. The builder patched what was necessary according to the code S20-10 referenced in the previous issue id. What is, however, needed at this point goes beyond that code and beyond the responsibility of the builder. The drop curb needs to be modified, which to my knowledge is not covered by the previous permit. I was advised by two other town inspectors who happened to be in the neighborhood that this is something St. Pete should be addressing. The curb is far too steep for cars to pull in and out of the driveway safely. As per my previous issue reported, cars lower to the ground are having issues pulling in and out of the driveway - even at a very slow speed. There is also some water build-up. The previous issue id also references the recommended fix - recommended by multiple contractors and even one of the inspectors (informally). What is required to ensure this problem is addressed?
