Description
A portion of sidewalk from around 1211 to 1259 Union Street is missing. The sidewalk ends inexplicably for a few hundred feet then picks up again.
This issue has been reported numerous times in the past. Hopefully since crews are pouring sidewalks along Sunset Point, this portion is also planned to be filled in too.
Thank you for your help.

The County receives many requests for sidewalk installs each year. Each request is reviewed as to whether it can be installed using in-house staff or if it needs to be a Capital Improvement Project. If it’s within staff’s ability and schedule permits, it will be added to the que for installation. If it cannot be completed via in house staff, it is added to the unfunded list. As funding comes available, the list is reviewed, and project scopes are determined. All sidewalk projects are evaluated by County staff with a combination of ranking and Cost Benefit Analysis (CBA) continually. Unfortunately, this project has been added to the unfunded list. As a side note, for perspective, the County’s current Unfunded List contains:
• 220 requests
• 100 linear miles of requests
