Hamden, CT assigned this issue to Engineering Inspector

Thank you for reporting the site to the Town. We will be dispatching our inspector to the site to evaluate the sidewalk. Please allow us up to two weeks to conduct the inspection.

The current pandemic concerns have closed the Government Center and we are working remotely. We are out and inspecting and there may be a delay due to the virus safety measures and back reporting.

If you have any further questions, please feel free to contact our office, our phones are forwarded to our Town issued cell phones. Our contact information can be found at www.hamden.com\Engineering

We will be sending our inspector out. In the meantime, here is some inspection history on the site.

We previously inspected the site in 2009 and found that approximately 40 lf of sidewalk needs to be replaced.

The Town currently repairs sidewalks based on the roads with the oldest complaints. Once we get to a street, we attempt to repair all sidewalk problems on the street. We are currently working on streets with complaints from 2008 streets. Based on current funding and given your street is a 2009 street, we anticipate it to take from 4 to 6 years to get to the street. This is based on our current level of funding and the approximately $4 million dollars worth of repairs needed for 2008 streets and $350,000 needed in claims locations.

Based on our inspection of the condition of the sidewalk, this site has been elevated to our claims list. Our contractors are currently on other job sites. We are scheduling the site as our on call contractors become available and we work through the claims list. Please be aware we schedule our claims list on a triage basis and handle the worst first.
