Such an ordinance as provided for in this Article shall define the location of the proposed sidewalk or portions of sidewalk to be constructed, reconstructed or repaired, with reasonable certainty, shall prescribe its width, the materials of which it is to be constructed and the manner of its construction, and may provide that the materials and construction shall be under the supervision of and be subject to the approval of the Village Engineer or of such other officer or board of officers of the Village as may be designated in the ordinance. The ordinance shall require all owners of lots, blocks, tracts or parcels of land touching upon the line of the proposed sidewalk or portions of sidewalk, or situated adjacent to the public right of way across which such sidewalk or portions of sidewalk are to be constructed, reconstructed or repaired, to construct, reconstruct or repair such sidewalk in front of, adjacent to or touching upon their respective lots, blocks, tracts or parcels of land in accordance with the specifications of the ordinance, within thirty (30) days after the mailing of notice of the passage of such ordinance addressed to the party who last paid the general taxes on the respective lots, blocks, tracts or parcels. Upon the failure or default thereof of said owners to construct or repair such sidewalk or portions thereof in accordance with the ordinance, the Village may furnish the materials and construct, reconstruct or repair the sidewalk in accordance with the ordinance, or may enter into a contract for the furnishing of such materials and the construction, reconstruction or repair of the sidewalk or portions of sidewalk as hereinafter provided in this Article. Provided that no such sidewalk repair or reconstruction shall be undertaken by the Village with respect to this Article until such time as said owners of lots, blocks, tracts or parcels of land as defined herein are first given an opportunity to participate in a voluntary sidewalk repair program provided for in Article 5 of Chapter 19 of this Code. The cost of sidewalk construction, reconstruction or repair, or such part thereof as may be fixed in the ordinance, may be collected as hereinafter provided in this Article, and the Village may issue vouchers bearing not to exceed six percent (6%) interest annually in payment of these sidewalks or portions thereof, payable solely out of the special tax provided for in this Article, when such tax is collected.
