Syllabus

<p>Road law — Grading—Waiver of damages.</p> <p>Although, a petitioner for the grading and paving of a street may have waived damages, yet if the borough making the improvement changes the grade of a sidewalk, to the damage of the petitioner’s property, the latter may recover for the injuries, notwithstanding the waiver; but in such a case it must appear that the change of grade of the sidewalk was something more than the mere change necessary to set the curb properly.</p>
