What is the Safe Sidewalks Program?

This is an incentive program to assist residents with repairing damaged sidewalks adjacent to their properties. The City will reimburse 50% of the cost of the sidewalk repairs, subject to a maximum $2,500 per property frontage. Income-qualified residents may receive a match of 75% of the cost of the sidewalk repair, subject to a maximum of $3,750 per property frontage.
