The City of New Haven failed its attempt to remediate the violations of the ADA on both sides of Court St, directly across from the Federal office building. The change in vertical level allowed by the ADA is one-quarter inch, one-half inch if beveled.. Changes in vertical level that exceed one-half inch were left at both locations. The improperly used paving blocks left in place on one curb ramp offer no slip-resistance, as materials used on curb are required to do.

First step is to have Public Works inspect the location and make a determination about the sidewalk. If there is a city factor impacting the sidewalk's condition (ie. tree) then the city is responsible for grinding/repair. If damage is caused by wear/tear/neglect and would pose a safety hazard, we at Public Works will try to alleviate the hazard by patching it and then deem a full repair is the "resident's responsibility".
In some cases, if area being impacted is severe and involves more than one address, area can be reviewed by the Resource Allocation Committee for a major project. Engineering would oversee new sidewalk replacements.
We at Public Works will always work with property owners to explore how best to get the work done.
