Left uncorrected,the sidewalk condition would worsen to a state where it would be rendered unusable and subject to increased pedestrian injuries from falls and possible litigations. ADVANTAC3ES IF APPROVED: The community will benefit from this project because it will provide safe detect free sidewalks for its many citizens. The sidewalk contracts are executed by private contractors, so it folbws that private sector jobs are created as a result of this activity. DISADVANTAGE3 IF APPROVED: Historically,the sidewalk reconstructions have created negative feedback in the area of construction procedure and assessment. Simply stated, property owners detest assessments, and despite the fact up to one-half the assessment is City subsidized, it still remains controversial. C�t1E�l F�se�rGt� C,���� JUN � 1 ��u� DISADVANTAC�S IF NOT APPROVED: This option would allow the infrastructure of sidewalk stock to deteriorate,which in turn,will generate more personal injury suits, ultimately resulting in the expenditure of larger dollar amounts in eventual repairs and/or replacement,as well as claim payouts.
