All sidewalks hereafter improved by placing walks with a permanent surfacing on any public street within the City shall be so improved by constructing the walks with concrete in accordance with the minimum specifications provided in Chapter 1462 and such other more stringent specifications as shall be required by the City Engineer to comply with ongoing improvements in the state-of-the-art construction of sidewalks.
The sidewalks shall be so laid that the top surface is properly roughened so that the same is prevented from becoming slippery when covered with moisture. The roughened finish shall be of such character as, in the judgment of the Department of Engineering, will effectively permit a slippery condition of such walks at any time.
Any grading necessary between the walks as laid and the curb line, or between such walks and the edge of the sidewalk space, as herein established, shall be done at the time of laying such walks so as to leave the sidewalk space at the grade herein described.
