City Council Picks Limited Review Of Sidewalk Plan
Councilman George Anderson said only a few of the roughly 80 sidewalk locations will be reviewed while the first 43 sites will not be revisited. He noted 14 of the 43 owners have already installed sidewalks and reviews are paused until after September 1 when special assessment districts may be set up. A September 4 meeting will mark the first step in forming districts with hearings later in the month. The planned reviews stem from protests over sidewalks being unnecessary in many locations.
