INITIATIt�G PROBLEM, ISSUE.OPPORTUNITY (WHO. WHAT, WHEN, WHERE, WHY�:
The problem "defective sidewalk" was created because of tree roots, deleterious subg�ade material, alternating freeRhaw cycies,
service life IimRs, chemicai additives, extreme temperature variations, etc. These problems occur on a citywide levei and must be
addressed and corrected on an annual basis. Left uncorrected, the sidewaik tnnd'Ran would worsen to a state where it would be
rendered unusab�e and subject to increased pedestrian injuries from falls and possible litigations.
ADVANTAGES IF APPflOVED;
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 follows that private sector jobs are createc� � a�re�s�ul ivity.

DISADVANTAGES IF APPROVE�: . ... _
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 fad up to one-half the assessment is Gity subsidized, ii still
remains controversial.
�IS0.DYANTAGES if NOT OPPROVED:
This option wouk! ailow the infrastructure of sidewa�k stock to deteriorate, which in turn, will generate more personal injury sui[s,
uRimately resuRing in the expenditure of larger dollar amounts in eventual repairs and/or replacement, as well as claim payouts.
