Question:

Dear Mayor,

I’m writing to report a very bumpy area at the intersection of Chateau and River that feels like an unmarked speed bump. I’m surprised that the intersection was left in such bad shape after the state’s construction work, as it’s uncomfortable and potentially dangerous for drivers.

Could you please look into getting this fixed?

Additionally, I’d like to ask if there is an ordinance regarding shoveling snow in front of residential properties, and if so, who is responsible for enforcing it?

Thank you

Response from Mayor Coles:

Good morning. I will ask our engineer to reach out to the state’s contractor to see about the Chateau Dr./River Ave. intersection.

Property owners are responsible for shoveling the sidewalks in front of their property. It has rarely been an issue in the past, but code enforcement would be responsible for enforcement.

Stay warm

Ray
