Living on Summit Road in Staten Island offers a mix of quiet suburban living with occasional nuisances, as indicated by the specific complaints and the overall 'A' grade. The street is largely peaceful, with no reported felonies, misdemeanors, or violations in the recent past. However, residents have faced some recurring issues.
One of the most frequent problems is illegal parking, with three complaints logged. This could mean that parking spots are limited, or drivers may be parking in restricted areas or blocking driveways. Overgrown trees and branches have also been a concern, with two complaints. This could potentially cause obstructions, damage, or safety hazards, such as branches hitting buildings, as reported twice. In response to these issues, the 'Trees and Sidewalks Program' has been activated to ensure pedestrian safety and maintain the aesthetic of the street.
Water system issues have been another recurring problem, with two complaints each for water system problems and hydrant leaks. One resident reported a blocked hydrant, which could pose a fire safety risk, while another mentioned a leaking hydrant. The city has taken action to address these issues, with one report indicating that a hydrant valve box cover was missing (WV2). Fortunately, snow or ice accumulation, which can exacerbate these issues, has only been a minor concern, with just one complaint.
Noise pollution, particularly from loud music or parties, has also been an issue, with one complaint. While this is not a frequent occurrence, it can significantly disrupt the quiet atmosphere of the street when it happens. General construction or plumbing issues have also been reported once, which could indicate ongoing construction or renovations in the area.
Despite these issues, Summit Road remains a desirable place to live, as evidenced by its high grade and the 'A' grades of nearby streets like Shore Road and Mass Street. The low crime rate also contributes to its appeal. However, residents and the city authorities must continue to work together to address the ongoing problems, particularly illegal parking and water system issues, to maintain the street's overall quality of life.
