Thank you for reporting this sidewalk concern to the City of St. Charles. Our Street Division was notified about this request and after investigation, 6 sidewalk panels have been added to the repair list. The repairs should be completed in 1-2 years. We appreciate your help in improving our City sidewalks!

1-2 years is totally unacceptable. Would the city allow a citizen to have a hazard of some sort to the general public, and allow them 1-2 years to fix the problem.

In 2014 the City finalized a Sidewalk Inventory and Rating and ADA Transition Plan that provides the basis for how the City repairs and extends sidewalks (City of St. Charles Long Range ADA Transition & Sidewalk Plan). All sidewalks are rated and addressed according to their condition and proximity to activity centers such as government buildings, schools, etc. They are then grouped in zones and those zones are prioritized. The City tries to execute a repair project in as many zones as possible each year with the available monies, though this will not always complete all the repairs in a zone.

The sidewalks in this zone have been rated and rank in a lower priority. This means there are many sidewalk zones that will need to be repaired first. It is difficult to put a time frame on this, as that list can change from year to year, but this location has been added.
