I wanted to let you know about the work being done to repair and replace sidewalks in the First District. My office has been working closely with the Public Works Department to ensure that our sidewalks are in excellent condition. In just ten months, we’ve made a great deal of progress.

Since May 2009, the following sidewalks have been repaired:

1. Henderson Ave. between 15th St. and 17th St. (45 addresses affected)
2. 10th St. between Maine Ave. and Daisy Ave.
3. Cedar Ave. between 4th St. and 5th St.
4. 4th St. between Linden Ave. and Atlantic Ave.
5. Orange Ave. (west side) between 9th St. to 10th St.
6. Elm Ave. between 9th St. and 10th St.
7. 5th St. between Lime Ave. and Olive Ave.
8. 11th St. between Daisy Ave. and Magnolia Ave.
 

Over the coming year, we will be repairing the following sidewalks - and much of this work has already begun:

1. Elm Ave. between 9th St. to 10th St.
2. 11th St. between Daisy Ave. to Magnolia Ave.
3. Chestnut Ave. between 6th St. to 7th St.
4. Pacific Ave. between 8th St. to 9th St.
5. 14th St. between Elm Ave. to Linden Ave.
6. 5th St. between Lime Ave. to Olive Ave.
7. Magnolia Ave. between 9th St. to 10th St.
8. 9th St. between Maine Ave. to Daisy Ave.
9. 1345 Linden Ave.

Maintaining our city’s infrastructure is an important part of the quality of life we experience as residents. I am committed to making sure that basic services like sidewalk repair are done quickly, with quality work, and I’m happy to report that our City staff are also committed to this goal, and doing a great job following through with our requests for repairs.

If you see sidewalk in need of repair, please let my office know immediately. You can contact Lena Gonzalez at 562-570-6919.

Go Long Beach!
