The ignorant person doing this to our City trees that help clean the air should be fined by PSE&G AND THE CITY .! They should also be made to pay for the removal of the asphalt !!!

He told me when I asked him, that is how I know. Also PSEG hasn't been here since the lockdown started and he finished filling out the whole area.

Why would PSE&G do something like that to a City sidewalk ? If PSE&G had to repair a sidewalk they would use cement NOT ASPHALT They.didn't do this !!!! This person is killing the trees.

I'd say this is proof

PSE&G does not repair a sidewalk with Asphalt ! If they make any repairs to City sidewalks they would use cement !

Now that the Mayor re-opened many City Departments -- I would like to know when this issue will be addressed ? Or is the person responsible for stealing asphalt from PSEG and damaging City trees going to get away with it ?

It's now 13 days since I requested an up date on this issue and I still haven't received one !
Got any new info ?????

Blocking a city tree in any way from getting access to water is prohibited according to chapter 321 of the City Municipal code. I have forwarded this issue to Housing Code for inspection.

Awesome

I hope something finally gets done to repair the damage to this tree And I also want the person responsible to pay for the repairs and receive a fine !!!!

Are there updates on this issue ? It's from April --- has the Housing Code done their inspection yet ?

Hello? Please update as to what is happening with this issue - I think a fair amount of time has gone by and nothing has been done

What exactly are you asking? What would u like done!

We want to know if the asphalt was removed and replaced with dirt because the asphalt is killing the tree and we also want the person responsible for doing this Fined .

The asphalt has not been removed - I see it every day. The owner of the home apparently works for JC Housing, so I don't know if he is getting a pass Melanie, I hope not.

Asphalt don't kill trees or there would be no trees alongside highways & the roadways

Hi Skatee123
If this doesn't get removed & the person doesn't get fined then I think we should contact the Mayor's office. I mean this is going on since April ---

Plus the person stole asphalt from PSE&G !

On May 26th the Housing Code was forwarded this complaint --- It is now July 8th and the asphalt is still covering the trees ! Please tell me why nothing has been done to resolve this ?

Issue 7555309 has been marked as a duplicate of this issue.

I would like to know if the asphalt has been removed from the sidewalk between these trees --- this happened in April -- it is now July .

Where's the inspectors to check?

Still nothing on this? Someone came to my street to see the weed complaint I made that I HAD TO TAKE CARE OF, do I also have to go through some other channel to get any movement on this? What is the point of this website if you don't consistently respond to complaints or communicate with your constituents as to the status of things?

I Totally -- Once again --- this issue was first reported on April 16th 2020. It is now August 14th --- Why hasn't this issue been resolved yet ?

On May 26th Parks & Forestry forwarded this issue to Housing Code for inspection --- Has the Housing Code inspector done his/her job yet ??
Why is it taking so long to resolve this issue ???

Is Anyone going to fix this issue ? -- It's now September -- this issue was reported in April !!!!

Hello --- is this issue Ever going to be addressed ? Does anyone know if the asphalt has been removed and the grass between the trees replaced and if the resident that stole the asphalt from PSE&G has been issued any fines ?

Thank you for your patience. We are doing our best to address this unusual issue as soon as possible. Will be inspected on 9/24/20.
