Description
The backfilled former meter pit/utility casting at this location has failed again. Prior case #101006618829 was marked resolved, but the repair did not hold. The temporary asphalt is breaking apart, the area is settling, and the adjacent sidewalk slabs are cracking and becoming unstable. This is a recurring failed restoration issue, not ordinary wear. Middle Street is currently being resurfaced. I am not asking to stop the entire project, but this failed backfill/utility restoration should be inspected and corrected before resurfacing closeout so the defect is not left unresolved and the sidewalk damage does not worsen. Please repair the failed backfill/utility restoration and repair or replace the affected sidewalk slabs.
