Curb and Accessible Ramp Repairs

It was reported to the board secretary today by a resident that the accessible ramp at Meadow Hills and Bass Wood is in need of repair.  It is difficult to use and may be hazardous.  Please use caution in this area.  

The Fort Wayne Street Department has been notified.  The process to expect was explained.  Much like the curb repair requests we made previously, each request is considered a "petition" that we send to the City.  They do not have enough money in the budget to make all the street and curb repairs that are needed.  As a result, they take the petitions and sort them in order of when they were received and by importance - determined by the Street Department.  


It can take up to a year from petition before the repairs are made.  
So, it's a great idea to report your issues as soon as you notice them, since the response time will be significant.  

A previous list of curb repairs was gathered and submitted.  We have no further information to report at this time. 

Please make your reports/requests to the secretary and they will be shared with the entire board.
