Deskripsyon
There is a hole underneath the sidewalk: a large crack has appeared. You can see that the area underneath the sidewalk is not supported by the ground. The sidewalk is very hazardous. We have previously reported that this sidewalk needed repair and it was approved for future repair by the town. This needs urgent attention.

Engineering met Public Works on site this morning at 10 a.m. and verified a gap below the sidewalk. We were able to lift a broken piece of sidewalk and observed that it went further toward the water lateral to the west (right facing the house).
Public Works will be sending crew over to remove two to three sidewalk squares to verify the undermining. The most likely scenario is of a broken water lateral or a rotten roots from a stump many years ago. Once the sidewalk squares are removed, the area will be filled with gravel until we have sidewalk contractors to replace the sidewalk
This site will be placed on our Claims list to be addressed.
