An elevation in a sidewalk caused by a tree root is not the responsibility of the Kingston Housing Authority, according to the Dutchess County Supreme Court, who dismissed the personal injury action against the Kingston Housing Authority upon The Rehfuss Law Firm’s motion in the matter of Lowry v. Kingston Housing Authority. The Court held that the tree and the sidewalk were the responsibility of the City of Kingston, which was not notified of the defect.
