The public works department put in new sidewalks a few years ago on Girard avenue. Unfortunately the sidewalk near my others drive wave became to crack, we called public works and they filled the crack and joke with blacktop instead of fixing it the right way. The sidewalks are so nice and here is thus big chunk of blacktop near her driveway. And they did a terrible job . If they installed it correct the first time it would have not have cracked and caved in . They blamed it on tree roots iBut it was a city tree that was there on the side walk. They should be as ashamed that they fixed it this way. We pay taxes .We try to keep our property nice. We need a supervisor to come and look at this mess they made. The roots are from the tree that was on the grass Close to the street . Do we need to call the mayor too.

Tge sidewalk at 115 Girard Avenue has still not been repaired . We had the Segway done with asphalt and the contractor who repeated the drive way confirmed that the new cement side walk the city put in not too long ago is caving in a being lifted by tree roots that are from trees that were on the street not on our property. There was a tree removed by the City the sidewalks were installed the roots are coming from the grass area near the street. The city sent a supervisor out who filled a nice cement sidewalk with asphalt . What a terrible job and we pay plenty of taxes to get it repaired properly with a cement sidewalk!
Someone is going to fall and they will sue the city . Please take note this has been reported several times. The sidewalk is also coming up next door by tree roots and the sidewalk us up. Why would anyone install a sidewalk without preparing the area first the whole block on girard avenue is like that all the way down the street. What a waste of tax follars. I would like to be contacted. I encourage other residents on girard avenue to inspect their sidewalks . They were installed not long ago and it ooks horrible.
I think the mayor should tour the area . Please respond this is the 3rewyest for done one to fix this problem and not patch it up!
