Document a broken sidewalk segment on 6th Street, site 2, 6th Street & W Hidalgo Ave corridor, downtown Raymondville, TX 78580 (public right-of-way) (2026-07-24)

A sidewalk segment along downtown Raymondville's 6th Street corridor is missing, badly cracked, or has shifted into an unsafe transition, and no photo record exists to prioritize it for repair on the city's thin public-works budget. Standard: Sidewalk panel repair with permeable finish, ADA/PROWAG surface requirements + EPA permeable pavement BMP, municipal right-of-way permit. SDG 11. Proof: document-only stand-off photo log + gap/displacement measurement + GPS + ranked follow-on note Method (Sidewalk panel repair with permeable finish, ADA/PROWAG surface requirements + EPA permeable pavement BMP, municipal right-of-way permit. SDG 11.): 1. 1. From the public street or an adjacent stable sidewalk panel, observe and photograph a missing, badly cracked, or unstable sidewalk segment on the 6th Street corridor, never stepping onto an unstable panel. 2. 2. Measure the gap or displacement using a tape measure held from a stable stance, and photograph the measurement. 3. 3. Note the segment's length, approximate age of the damage, and any tripping or wheelchair-blocking hazard. 4. 4. Record a ranked follow-on note naming the segment for the city's ADA-retrofit sidewalk-repair crew. Done when: document-only stand-off photo log + gap/displacement measurement + GPS + ranked follow-on note

How this work is done

A documented method, so this packet comes out the same whoever does it. Typically 240–600 minutes. Method of record: Sidewalk panel repair with permeable finish per ADA/PROWAG surface requirements + EPA permeable pavement BMP, under municipal right-of-way permit — trained crew with wet-cut dust controls; assess→repair→verify

Bring

• right-of-way permit + traffic cones/barricades and signage
• wet-cut saw or grinder with water feed + vacuum (dust control), or paver lift/reset tools
• permeable paving material (permeable pavers/pervious mix) + bedding aggregate + compactor
• 2-ft level / smart level + measuring wheel + camera

Steps

1. 1. ASSESS: measure and photograph each displaced/cracked panel (lift height, cross-slope, ponding), mark the repair extent, and confirm the right-of-way permit and utility locates (811) before any cutting.
2. 2. Set up cones/barricades and a safe pedestrian detour; keep all work out of the traffic lane.
3. 3. Remove or wet-cut the failed section with water-fed dust controls; excavate to the design subbase and correct the root or subgrade cause (root-prune only per the city arborist standard).
4. 4. Place open-graded base and the permeable surface (pavers or pervious mix) to ADA/PROWAG slope and lippage limits; compact and edge.
5. 5. VERIFY: check cross-slope ≤2% and vertical discontinuity ≤1/4 inch, water-test infiltration, photograph before/after from the same vantage, and close out the permit.

If it does not match the plan

• No utility locate (811) or no right-of-way permit -> STOP: do not cut.
• Any cutting/grinding without water-fed dust control -> STOP (respirable silica); wet methods or vacuum shroud are mandatory.
• Structural failure larger than a panel (undermining, sinkhole) -> document and route to the city engineer; do not patch over.

What counts as done

• Finished surface meets ADA/PROWAG: cross-slope ≤2%, lippage ≤1/4 inch (level photos)
• Water-test photo/video shows infiltration through the permeable section (no ponding)
• Before/after photos from matching vantage + permit close-out reference
• Pedestrian detour maintained for the whole work window (setup photo)

Proof is measured against these, not judged by taste.
