We're continuing to monitor the sidewalk situation outside Rite Aid on First Avenue and Fifth Street... after several complaints, someone shoveled the Fifth Street side of the store...
Last night!
This afternoon!
First Avenue was still a little slick...
And thanks (again!) to @jorgeortiz85 for this shot this evening...

It's a community effort. When we neighbors spot issues like this, we should take photos and attach them to an email to Grieve to perhaps add to the site if worthy of more citizen action. This is our neighborhood! We should all be a part of making it better for each other. :)

I agree, Blue Glass & Anon - Appreciate so much this location for community info & also that we all need to take responsibility for what goes on in our neighborhood.
ReplyDeleteMany thanks to everyone for sharing comments, photos, etc.
ReplyDeleteWe need to hold these bad neighbors accountable...
How 5th St. / Rite Aid got cleared:
ReplyDelete1. residents called Rite Aid executive offices and complained.
2. residents filed a complaint on CB 3 website.
3. CB asked Sanitation supervisor to visit site. By time of visit a small path had been cleared because of resident call. Sanitation instructed Rite Aid to make path wider and also told them they will be monitoring.
Pictures are often helpful==but if you need to file complaint to make sure it is recorded and something is being done.
I hope this is the end of this as a problem: I was told this morning by a Rite Aid executive that they have contracted with a service that will automatically come out to shovel when it snows. Thanks again for EV Grieve, CB, block assn & resident support, especially the photos, which the exec told me he had seen.
