Sidewalk Repair

The Public Works Department will annually conduct a survey and evaluation of the Village's sidewalks during the Spring of each year to determine if sections of the sidewalk need replacement. During sidewalk inspections, evaluators will rate the condition of a sidewalk on a scale of 1-5, with five being the worst condition. Those sidewalks determined to be a 4 or 5 shall be scheduled for replacement as soon as possible.


Voluntary Replacement 50/50 Program

If a section of the sidewalk does not meet the replacement requirements, but the resident still wishes to have the section replaced for aesthetic or other reasons, the Village will pay 1/2 or 50% of the replacement costs (dependant upon budget allocations). In instances where the Village is not replacing any sidewalks, or the repair period has already been completed, that section of the sidewalk will be added to the next year's replacement plan. Under no cicumstances may the resident replace a sidewalk on their own and bill the Village for any cost.
