Dear Sir,

During my early-morning walk, I am disturbed to see banana peelings and other safety hazards thrown on the sidewalk. I immediately think of the blind population who use the sidewalks.

To litter the sidewalks with such hazards is extremely dangerous for the blind. Should you see any such hazards on the sidewalks, please take a minute to remove and place them in a nearby trash bin.

Let’s exercise care and caution. Let’s make our sidewalks safe for everyone.
