Description

The sinkhole alongside the sidewalk at this location has reappeared. It was filled in earlier in the year, but now a hole has grown to the north and under the sidewalk. This is a hazard that someone could readily fall in if they just miss the sidewalk or pushed by someone fooling around. It could result in a major injury to a pedestrian. The earlier gravel fill did not fix the problem.
