I am saddened and disappointed to see how much the borough of Forty Fort has gone downhill over the last 10 years.The first problem is sidewalks; many are heaved and crooked. They look a mess! The problem is caused by trees on the tree lawn.The trees are also the cause of the excessive damage of residents&#8217; sewer lines.More than 50 dogs and cats have been murdered by aggressive drivers and speeders on River Street over the past few years. Drivers routinely go over 60 mph when the posted speed limit is 35. Police in Forty Fort need to get off their butts and start handing out speeding tickets. It&#8217;s only a matter of time before some human gets killed.Joe KaravisHanover Township
