Descrição

My wife and I recently bought the property at 25 Hobart Street. Our garage is located in the back corner of the property. On the property directly behind our garage, 24/26 Brownell Street, there is what appears to be an abandoned utility pole. This pole is unstable and tilting across the property line. It is now resting on a chain link fence that runs along our property line, and is in danger of coming down and destroying our garage. My wife and I have contacted both United Illuminating and AT&T, but because there is no identifying plate on the pole, neither will claim responsibility for it. Similarly, we have spoken to the tenants of 24/26 Brownell, but they have told us that the property is owned by an out-of-state property management company and we have been unable to get any kind of action taken by company even though the tenants assured us they would report the issue. Surely, one of the current utility companies that conducts business in New Haven is responsible for this pole, but at this point my wife and I need help before it comes down and destroys our garage. I have attached a recent photo that show just how perilous this situation is becoming.
