Town of Huntington, arising from an October 9, 2018 fall on an uneven asphalt patch in a sidewalk inside a Town parking lot, the court reversed the denial of summary judgment and dismissed the suit, holding that affidavits from the Town Clerk's and Superintendent of Highways' offices, which had searched five years of records without finding notice of the defect, met the Town's burden under §174-3, and that the plaintiff had not raised a triable issue on the narrow \"affirmative negligence\" exception to the notice rule.[8][9] The same opinion cites Coventry v.
