I JUST WANTED TO LINK ALL OF YOU TO THE CNN VIDEO SPOTLIGHTING THE SIX CONNECTICUT TOWNS THAT MADE THE TOP 100 BEST PLACES TO LIVE IN THE USA.
CHESHIRE MADE THE LIST-SO DID TRUMBULL!!
On my last post, “War Driving,” I told you I was going to go by the Town Hall and see if there was any damage to the railing on the steps in the front of the Town Hall that faces South Main Street from some kids who have decided to use this area as another skateboard park.
Well, I went by on Wednesday night and took the photos that you see above.
The first two, show the skuff marks that are quite prevalant to this railing from kids sliding their skateboards down this railing then landing on the sidewalk.
The second photo shows another angle-remember, the kids I saw on Tuesday were not wearing helmets!!
Can you imagine what type of injuries they would have suffered if they had fallen?? And as I stated before, the parents would have been suing the town BIG TIME!!
The last two photos show some SHODDY upkeep to the front of this town hall-HELLO!! THIS TOWN HALL IS FALLING APART IN THE FRONT!!
Look at photo number three in the slideshow-CAN WE MATCH THE SLATE?? SOME OF IT IS CRUMBLING!! AND WHAT HAPPENED?? COULD WE NOT GET ANOTHER PIECE OF SLATE AT THE VERY RIGHT END OF THE PORCH?? THERE IS CEMEMT!! IT LOOKS TERRIBLE!!
The last photo in the slide show is what happened to the brick at the bottom right hand side of the building when I touched it to see why there wasn’t any MORTAR!!
IT BROKE OFF!!
ATTENTION: IF YOU ARE READING THIS POST IN THE TOWN HALL-GET UP OFF OF YOUR DESK NOW AND EVACUATE!!
THIS IS DISGUSTING!! THERE IS NO MORTAR AROUND THESE BRICKS!!
Now photos can’t show everything in detail as the human eye can, but I suggest someone from the Town Government go outside and look for themselves.
It appears there was some re-pointing work done-but either the mortar was not put in around the bricks or it crumbled and fell out!!
I did not see any lose mortar on the ground, so I think someone FORGOT TO REPLACE THE MORTAR AROUND THE BRICKS WHEN THEY WERE REPOINTING!!
These were probably the same people who dug the original hole for the pool in the wrong place several years ago!!
REMEMBER THAT FIASCO!!
WAKE UP!! TAKE NOTICE TOWN OF CHESHIRE!! TAKE CARE!! THIS IS THE TOWN HALL-THE FRONT IS A DISGRACE!! IT IS FALLING APART!!
The railing is all corroded!! COME ON!!
I pray someone examines this railing before these blockhead kids decide to skateboard over there again. I hope this railing does not come loose!!
Bottom line: USE SOME OF THIS CRRA MONEY TO FIX UP THE FRONT OF THIS TOWN HALL NOW!!
This damage looks like it was caused by water
-CORRECT IT IMMEDIATELY!!
NEVER MIND THE POOL AND THE ASTRO TURF-AN INSPECTION OF THE FOUNDATION OF THE TOWN HALL MUST BE DONE ASAP!
That is all for now!!
