Sprung a leak

yup, municipal sidewalk
the edge eastern edge of my property is the centerline of the road
i did talk to the city about it and not only did they not want to pay to fix THEIR sidewalk

they also did not want to pay me to run THEIR street on my property

and whats even funnier?
ive had the police show up because MY kids were running their go carts and four wheelers on the side walk, which is on MY property

i'm sure this all got put in under "easements" whatever that means, before i bought the place

as for the shut off under the sidewalk
i dont know who came up with that, but it's pretty short sighted

typical case of "not my problem"
