Why is curb, sidewalk and driveway maintenance important?

Homes remain the single largest investment families make.  Attractive neighborhoods, where streets and sidewalks are maintained, contribute to the preservation and enhancement of property values.  Well maintained public use areas prevent accidents and reduce legal liabilities.  Additionally, gravel and debris can obstruct sewer lines and damage equipment. 


Update to Curb Policy:  based on recent Borough Council action, curbs identified for replacement will be replaced and paid for by the Borough ONLY as part of road reconstruction projects.
