INITIATING PROBLEM. ISSUE. OPPORTUNITY (WHO, WHAT, WHEN, WHERE. WHY):
The problem "defective sidewalk" was created beca use of tree roots, deleterious subgrade material, alternating free/thaw cycles,
service life limits, chemical additives, extreme temparature variations, etc. These problems occur on a citywide level and must be
addressed and corrected on an annual basis. Left I ncorrected, the sidewalk condition would worsen to a state where it would be
rendered unusable and subject to increased pedestrian injuries from falls and possible litigations.
ADVANTAGES IF APPROVED:
The community will benefit from this project because it 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 created as a result of this activity.
DISADVANTAGES F 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 -h If tR he assess City subsidized, it stil
remains controversial. (�{n( Center
MAY 16 1994
DISADVANTAGES IF NOT APPROVED:
This option would allow the infrastructure of sidews k stock to deteriorate, which in turn, will generate more personal injury suits,
ultimately resulting in the expenditure of larger dollar amounts in eventual repairs and /or replacement, as well as claim payouts.
