The responsibility for maintaining a sidewalk safe for public use rests with the owner, lessee, tenant, or agent having charge of the lands upon which the walkway exists. The city assumes none of this responsibility by accepting an application for participation in sidewalk replacement or by agreement to participate in sidewalk replacement.
