The Town of Hamden has spent a great deal of taxpayers money on fixing or replacing damaged/unsafe sidewalks throughout the town. Why has this stretch of sidewalk been forgotten?
Hamden Code:
Title 9 section 96.04
The owner, and every person, firm or corporation having the care or custody of any building or parcel of land bordering upon any highway or street in the town where there is any footway, sidewalk or curb, shall maintain such footway, sidewalk or curb in a safe and convenient condition for the use of the public and shall promptly repair all defects therein endangering or incommoding public travel upon the same, and shall promptly remove and correct any obstructions that may be placed or found thereon. If the owner, person, firm or corporation having the care or custody of any such building or parcel of land shall fail to repair the defects after written order to do so, or fail to remove and correct the obstructions after written notice to do so, the Legislative Council, or its designated agent, may cause the repair or removal and correction to be performed, and the expense so incurred shall be a lien in favor of the town upon the property until paid and may be recovered in an action at law brought in the name of the town.
If you are unsure as to whom you need to contact with regard to a specific question or concern, please phone the General Information line at (203) 287-7000 or the Help Desk at (203) 287-7676 and you will be directed to the appropriate department.

There is a sidewalk at this location. It just needs to be repair/replaced. That is the responsibility of the homeowner.

If you have a problem with the homeowner, submit a complaint to the town via the town's website or in person.
