Letters: Clean up the sidewalks

On two recent trips to Sacramento City Hall as a pedestrian, sidewalks were littered from edge to edge by a slurry of bird droppings. In addition to off putting, and unsightly, it was a possible health hazard. In the flu season, this hazard posses an additional risk to folks like me, the elderly. I don't expect government to every thing for me but I do expect it to put on a reasonably clean and hazard-free face.
