The problem "defective sidewalk" was created because of tree roots, deleterious subgrade material, alternating freefthaw cycles,
service I'rfe limits, chemical addftives, extreme temperature variations, etc. These problems occur on a citywide level and must be
addressed and corrected on an annual basis. Left uncorrected, the sidewalk condition would worsen to a state where it would be
rendered unusable and subject to increased pedestrian injuries from falis and poss��i[tic,�ati{ins.

MAR t � 1995
The community wili benefiit irom this projad because ft wilt 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 created as a resuft ot this activity.

DISADVANTAGES IF APPROVED: -`y �
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 tact up to one-half the assessment is City subsidized, it still
remains controversial.
This option would allow the infrastructure of sidewalk stock to deteriorate, which in turn, will generate more personal injury suits,
uRimately resulting in the expenditure of larger doflar amounts in eventuai repairs and/or replacement, as well as ciaim payouts.
