By City Ordinance, the repair or replacement of deteriorated sidewalk and curb and gutter in the public way is the responsibility of the adjacent private property owner.  Property owners can hire a contractor to accomplish the required concrete repairs, which requires a permit to work in the public way, or property owners can take advantage of one of the following programs offered by the City.

Streets Division 50/50 Concrete Replacement Program
This cost-sharing program splits the actual cost of replacement between the adjacent residential property owner and the City on a 50/50 basis.  Property owners must pay for the work before the start of construction.  Construction estimates are provided without charge and work is scheduled on a "first come first serve" basis. Further information can be obtained by emailing Andy Bath at andrewbath@slcgov.com or calling 801-535-6934. 

Special Assessment Area
A concrete replacement Special Assessment Area (SAA) is created to resolve all of the deteriorated concrete problems within a defined district.  The City and the adjacent private property owners share the replacement costs on a 50/50 basis.  Property owners have the option of paying off the concrete replacement assessment over a five-year period.  Further information can be obtained by contacting Lynn Jarman at lynn.jarman@slcgov.com or  801-535-6016. 

Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) Concrete Replacement
These federally funded concrete replacement projects are accomplished with no cost to the adjacent private property owner; however, funding is limited and work can only be accomplished in defined "target areas" based on restrictive federal guidelines.  Further information can be obtained by emailing Sam McAllister at sam.mcallister@slcgov.com or calling 801- 535-7792.
