INITIATING PR08LEM, ISSUE.OPPOFiNNIN (WHO. WHAT, WNEN, WHEPE, WIi1�:
The problem "defective sidewalk" was created because of tree roots, deleterious subgrade material, alternating freetthaw cycles,
service I'rfe limits, chemicai 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 condRion would worsen to a state where it would be
rendered unusabie and subject to increased pedestrian injuries from falis and possible litigations.
ADVANTAGESIFAPPROVED:
The community will benefit from this projec[ because ft 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 cieated, as a resuR of.this.activaty.

DISADVANTAGES 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.
DISADVANTAGES If NOT APPPOVED:
This option would allow the infrastructure of sidewalk stodc to deteriorate, which in turn, will generate more personal injury suits,
ultimately resulting in the expenditure ofi larger dollar amounts in eventuai repairs and/or replacement, as well as claim payouts.
