Left uncorrected, the sidewalk condition would worsen fo a state where it would be unusable and subject to increased pedestrian injuries from fails and possible Iitigations. The community will benefit from this project because it will provide safe defect free sidewalks for its citizens. The sidewalk coniracts are done by private contractors generating public sectorjobs as a result. Historicalfy, 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 assessment is City subsidized. Having to assess for walk reconstruction remains a controversial issue. ' �earch CenYer JUL p I 2UO2 IF NOT APPROVED: This option would allow the infrastructure of sidewalk stock io deteriorate, which in tum, will generate more personal injury suits, resulting in the expenditure of larger doilar amouMs in repairs and replacement, as we�l as claim payouts. 10UNTOFTAANSAGTIONS 25 ,711.32 COSUREVENUEBUDGETED(C{RCLEONE� YES NO souctce 01-M-0672 A.
