How are the deficient sidewalk locations determined?

Answer

Each year an area of the City will be selected for the Department of Public Service to inspect sidewalks based on the Sidewalk Inspection Criteria.

Sidewalk sections meeting any of the Sidewalk Inspection Criteria will be marked with a white letter denoting the sidewalk deficiency and will be the responsibility of the property owner to repair or replace.  Sidewalk sections marked with a white “O” will be replaced or repaired at the City of Oregon’s expense if it is determined that a tree in the right of way caused the damage.
