Residents of Fishers Island have long known that most sidewalks on the island aze in bad condition. Walkers and joggers, both adult and children, often opt to walk or jog in the street due to the unsafe conditions. Those that do use the sidewalk must be constantly vigilant to avoid injury or mishap. Two (2) accidents related to sidewalk conditions have occurred this summer. Both resulted in serious injury. Recommeudations We would like to recommend that all numbered locations be fixed, but due to vehicle traffic patterns, conditions of sidewalks and high pedestrian use we recommend the following be considered urgent: 1) The entire sidewalk on Equestrian Avenue from the Pazade Ground Apartment property to the Village Triangle (with the exception of two spots between the Dock Pond and the Museum). 2) The sidewalk in the village triangle running from The News Cafe to Drink N Vessel. 3) Brush and vegetation should be cut back along the entire length of Montauk Ave. Much of that sidewalk is in very poor condition, but significant portions aze so overgrown that it is difficult to locate the sidewalk. We look forward to your response and projected date that the repairs will take place. For further information or a guided walking tour of the sidewalks of the Fishers Island, please feel free to contact us. Respectfully submitted, Patty Faulkner Cynthia Riley
