The probiem "defective sidewatk" was caused by muitipie probiems, tree roots, poor subgrade materials, ireefthaw cyctes,
service life limits, chemical additives, wctreme temperature variations, etc. These problems occur on a citywide basis and
must be addressed and corrected annually. Left uncorrected, the sidewalk condition would worsen to a state where it
would be unusable and subject to increased pedestrian injuries from falls and possible litigations.
The community will benefit from this project because it will provide safe defect free sidewalks for its citizens. The sidewalk
contracts are done by private contractors generating public sector jobs as a resuR.
Historicaliy, the sidewalk reconstruction has created negative feedback because of construction procedures and
assessments. Property owners question the assessments, despite the fact that up to one-half the assessmenf,i�s�'i,'�Yy

WHAT, WHEN, WHERE, WH1]:
The probiem "defective sidewatk" was caused by muitipie probiems, tree roots, poor subgrade materials, ireefthaw cyctes,
service life limits, chemical additives, wctreme temperature variations, etc. These problems occur on a citywide basis and
must be addressed and corrected annually. Left uncorrected, the sidewalk condition would worsen to a state where it
would be unusable and subject to increased pedestrian injuries from falls and possible litigations.
The community will benefit from this project because it will provide safe defect free sidewalks for its citizens. The sidewalk
contracts are done by private contractors generating public sector jobs as a resuR.
Historicaliy, the sidewalk reconstruction has created negative feedback because of construction procedures and
assessments. Property owners question the assessments, despite the fact that up to one-half the assessmenf,i�s�'i,'�Yy
subsidized. Having to assess for walk reconstruction remains a controversial issue. Cp � nc+1 � e � S ��tu"1 =""

This option would allow the infrastructure of sidewalk stock to deteriorate, which in turn, will generate more personai injury
suits, resulting in the expenditure of larger dollar amounts in repairs and replacement, as well as claim payouts.
