At a recent Board of Trustees meeting a resident asked the Board to review the condition of sidewalks in the Village, implying that the sidewalks needed repair or replacement. As Village residents know, only two streets in Munsey Park have sidewalks: Park Avenue (from Munsey Place to Manhasset Woods Road on the north side and to Abbey Road on the south side) and Manhasset Wood Road (to Park Avenue). We asked the Village road crew to do a visual examination of the sidewalks and prepare a report to the Board. The report is below. In essence, the sidewalks in the Village are in relatively good shape. There is the some cracking (especially near driveway aprons) and minor lifting or settling but nothing out of the ordinary, especially for sidewalks that are, in some areas, close to 85 years old. None of these conditions require any repair work or replacement at this time. We also note that, to date, no complaints or claims have been received by or asserted against the Village based on the condition of the sidewalks.
If you have any comments, questions or concerns, please contact Village Hall.
