The late Councilman Robert Ferraro liked being called a "watchdog" and was always on the alert for proper use of the taxpayers' money. One of the things he found fault with was a road repair project several years ago that included handicapped ramps. He pointed out that the ramps and the road were not aligned correctly and so anyone using them in bad weather would encounter puddles or ice at the bottom of the ramps.
As someone who crosses Park & Seventh almost every day and sometimes more than once a day, I have often had to pick my way around deep puddles and slippery ice often at the corners.
Now Union County has a new project to repair the street and of course there are new ramps. I wish Bob was still cruising around in his blue van to check up on this project and to make sure the grading will be an improvement over the last time the ramps were done.
The workers who did the paving patched the edges with asphalt. I am looking forward to a nice, smooth Park Avenue soon, with no puddles at the corners.
