The problem "detective sidewalk" was caused by multipte problems, tree roots, poor subgrade materiais, treezefthaw cyc{es, senice
1'rfe limits, chemical additives, extreme temperature variations, etc. These problems occur on a citywide basis and must be addressed
and cortected annually. Left uncorrected, the sidewalk condition would worsen to a state where it would be unusable and subject to
ir�creased pedeshian injuries from falls and possible litigations.
ADVANTAGESIFAPPROVED:
The community wili benefit ftom this project because it will provide safe defect free sidewalks for its citlzens. The sidewalk contracts
are done by private contractors generating private sector jobs as a result.
DISADVANTAGES IF HPPROVED:
Historicalty, the sidewaik reconstructions fiave created negative feedback because of construction procedures and assessments.
Property owners question the assessments, despite the fact that up to one-half the assessment is City subsidized. Having to assess
for walk reconstruction remains a controversial issue.

This option would ailow the infrastructure of sidewalk stock to deteriorate, which in tum, will generate more personal injury suits,
resuRing in the expenditure of larger dollar arrwunts in repairs and repiacement, as weil as claim payouts.
