Countywide Sidewalk Projects

Description

Each year the County receives numerous requests for the installation of sidewalks. Many of these projects are large and complex enough to justify an independent Capital Improvement Project. Others are quite small and can be satisfied with minimum cost and effort. Some of these offer immediate safety improvements. This flexible response fund allows for the preliminary study of sidewalk requests to determine the appropriate response. In cases where the cost is low and safety improvement opportunities are identified, this flexible response fund allows the construction of sidewalks in a relatively short time. Projects can be located anywhere in the County that sidewalk requests arise, hence the designation “Countywide”. Work includes the preliminary engineering study, design and permitting, and construction of sidewalks. Other Funding is from the Sidewalk Fund.(Fund 1268). The Fiscal Year 2025 budget for this project is $1,153,861.
