Editor's Note: The following is a policy statement only and has not been adopted as an ordinance.
The Administrative Committee recommends that the city assume the duty to make emergency repairs to sidewalks according to the following policy:
(A) The city would budget approximately $5,000 per year for emergency sidewalk repair.
(B) The city would repair sidewalks which have become genuinely hazardous to pedestrians by reason of their disrepair.
(C) The repair or replacement of sidewalks which are not in a hazardous condition would be the responsibility of the adjacent property owner, but such repair or reconstruction would have to be done according to city specifications.
(D) This policy would apply only to sidewalks within the boundaries of city rights-of-way and the repair or replacement of all sidewalks on private property would be the responsibility of the property owner.
