On May 10th, Hermann Hearsay undertook a thorough survey of Hermann's streets and sidewalks. We were forced to suspend our survey when the rains fell and when flood waters covered some city streets. Those obstacles have come and gone, so we are now resuming our survey.
While others in the local media have conducted opinion polls with small sample sizes, we are actually undertaking to walk every street and every sidewalk in Hermann and then document our findings. When we have completed our street and sidewalk survey, we will turn over our findings to anyone in the city administration who may care to review them.
Our first three reports may be accessed by clicking on the following links:

Our findings on the fourth day of our survey are as follows:
- 2nd Street walking west from Gutenberg to Schiller Street - Sidewalks on both sides of street are in reasonably good condition. But there are some cracks and broken pavement in a few spots on the north side and south side of the streets. The asphaltic street surface is in reasonably good condition. We oberved no potholes, no patches and no alligatoring. The street suface is well sealed. It looks nice! A standard for all of Hermann.
- 2nd Street walking west from Schiller Street to Market Street - Sidewalks on both sides of street are in fair condition but busted up in a few spots. The asphaltic street surface is in reasonably good condition. Very little patching, alligatoring and no potholes. The street surface is well sealed.
- 2nd Street walking west from Market Street to Mozart Street - Sidewalks on both sides of street in average condition for the most part but are busted up in a few spots. There is some heaving of the concrete slabs in a few spots creating trip hazards. The asphaltic street surface is in good condition. No potholes. A few cracks in the street surface and some patching
- 2nd Street walking west from Mozart Street to Washington Street - Sidewalks on both sides of street are in fair condition but the concrete sidewalk slabs are busted up in a few spots. A few trip hazards were observed where the slabs have heaved. The asphaltic street surface is not in as good a condition as it is from Gutenberg Street to Mozart Street. We observed more patching of and some cracks in the asphaltic street surface.
