Sidewalk repairs slated to begin.

Our good neighbors Ken and Erin have been working to try and get the city to repair the much degraded sidewalks in the Cleveland-Holloway neighborhood for quite a while. Finally repairs are scheduled to begin for Carlton St. This is great news and everyone should submit a report to the city pointing out the needed repairs for other streets in the 'hood - Cleveland and Mallard St. are other roads that have sidewalks in desperate need of attention. Thanks to Ken and Erin and everyone who has raised the city's awareness on this issue. See the report from Erin below.


After four years of reporting the problem to the city (and I'm sure
Ken and I aren't the only ones who have been doing the reporting), Ken
got this update
today:

Request Number: 419185
Complaint Code: Sidewalk Repair
Description: Sidewalk Repair (STREET)
Problem Address: 600 CARLTON AVE , DURHAM
Prj Complete Date: 5/28/2011

Next projects: Cleveland Street and Mallard Street. If a bunch of us
start filling out the form now (which I have already done), they
might be repaired by 2015!

If you would like to share your ideas for sidewalk improvement, the
city form is available here: http://www.ci.durham.nc.us/departments/onecall/online_index.cfm
(select "sidewalk needs to be reparied" under "public works" in the
drop down menu at the top).
