I doubt any inspections were done in 2014.

My mother-in-law (a senior) tripped on a root heaved sidewalk on our street. She was bloodied, but thankfully not too hurt. I immediately went to the site, took pictures and forwarded them to the councillor with a description of the incident and requested the sidewalk be fixed.

I received the following response from his assistant, "Thank you for your e-mail and for letting us know about this issue. I have contacted staff and asked them to send someone out."

Months later the City contractor cut down the tree (old and rotten) which had heaved the sidewalk, then they ground out the stump (the bottom of the grinder actually scraped the heaved sidewalk when it moved over it) and today, 16 months later the sidewalk is as it was when my mother-in-law tripped.

Does anyone else get the feeling that Gerry Davis is in a position which is clearly over his head?
