The walkway damage was reported quite a while ago, and before this winter rolls around and causes more damage, maybe the repairs should be done sooner rather than later
Sidewalk will be inspected to determine if location was damaged during paving of the street. If sidewalk is determined to be neglect the homeowner will be notified to make such repair.
