Text Box: PRINCETON RESIDENTS DON’T WANT SIDEWALKS RAISED By Rex Rhein Residents of upper Princeton Ave. objected to the council’s suggestion that sidewalks t could be raised to channel storm water runoff from MacArthur Blvd. at a Sept. 11 meeting. Resident Phyllis Fordham said it had been agreed at previous meetings that an engineer should first look at the situation. "If we start doing patchwork, and all of us as neophytes sitting around deciding what the design should be, we are just asking for trouble," she said. Councilmember Nancy Long said three County employees --including an engineer, a storm-water management expert, and the deputy director of their division-- would meet informally with the Council at 4:00 pm on Sept. 27 to walk around town and "discuss with them what the problems are." There will then be a "full meeting" with the county team, she said. At Ms. Fordham's suggestion, Mayor Beers said the town would try to hire its own expert to look at Princeton Ave. and perhaps join the walkthrough. "I think we need to get the county involved because a lot of the water that came in from Princeton was running down from MacArthur, down the top of Princeton, into the right-of-way and other areas," Mayor Beers said. "The County should take some steps to redirect that part." Joining Ms. Fordham in her objection to raising the sidewalks were Maryse and Rex Rhein and Betsy Carpenter.
