Delightful Fix, Thank You
When your HOA is cheap or has spent too much money on other things, this is their not-so-reasonable solution to perfectly reasonable requests. Sure, it solves their liability if someone trips, but it doesn’t fix the uneven sidewalks! I’d be pretty upset if I gave a decent penny to the HOA each year, and this was their answer.

The “Walk at Own Risk” is slowly killing me. It’s a sidewalk. You walk everywhere at your own risk, but this is a sidewalk. It’s meant to be walked on. That’s why it’s there! Walking in the street is risky. Walking in the grass is risky. The sidewalk is supposed to be SAFE. Hopefully, this was just a temporary measure.
