Here in the Anholm neighborhood there are additional sidewalks desperately in need of repair. I’ve included 3 photos. These sidewalks have been this way for a couple decades. It’s dangerous for our elderly neighbors to walk these damaged sidewalks. My mom is 85, walks with a cane and has already broken her hip once. Down the street a neighbor with Parkinson’s uses a walker - it’s just not safe. She’s not the only elderly/disabled person having to deal with this mishegos. Please know that neighbors in their 70’s and 80’s often can’t go somewhere else to walk, nor should they have to. Nor should they have to walk in the streets. Lastly, many time people park their cars over the sidewalks half in the driveway / half in the street. I call SLOPD and ask that they be ticketed and to many times the officer gives the rude car owner a warning- no ticket. And then they continue to park blocking the sidewalks. There’s been enough warnings. Please, ticket these thoughtless car drivers. Thank u for listening - Mark Swain 460 Lincoln 1 `.663 to of Tot toot I low Tf t 1k Joe Tsor jpm� j th1 01t OA j'd `ttar IR Is Its IPA r ALI r^.I Ides, ell to se e 1 e 0" off ofsue`is -{ _yy I. al.i'._. to Oft k III low 4 let I Of WO lif A •- I Poole r I se AZO ;oll lit or sfI Is AF III eIl— . .. i - "forailIle +:.
