First step is to have Public Works inspect the location and make a determination about the sidewalk. If there is a city factor impacting the sidewalk's condition (ie. tree) then the city is responsible for grinding/repair. If damage is caused by wear/tear/neglect and would pose a safety hazard, we at Public Works will try to alleviate the hazard by patching it and then deem a full repair is the "resident's responsibility".

In some cases, if area being impacted is severe and involves more than one address, area can be reviewed by the Resource Allocation Committee for a major project. Engineering would oversee new sidewalk replacements.

We at Public Works will always work with property owners to explore how best to get the work done.

Still not fixed and even worse

28 CFR 35.133 "(a) A public entity shall maintain in operable working condition those features of facilities and equipment that are required to be readily accessible to and usable by persons with disabilities by the Act or this part."

Can someone explain (in Federal District Court) how the failure to comply with 28 CFR 35.133 and how a detectable warning on a curb ramp are a "resident's responsibility?".
