I can't speak for the homeowners where Dot lives and shot her video. But where I live, the upkeep and replacement cost of sidewalks that go through the owners property falls on the property owner 1 Quote
TBG 150 Posted Thursday at 09:22 PM Posted Thursday at 09:22 PM That is part of the public right of way. No homeowner can be assessed maintenance on a public thoroughfare. The homeowner is responsible for anything behind the public easement. If that easement is landscaped with sod, it is in the owners best interest to keep it maintained. Otherwise the rest of the property looks like shit. Quote

One would think that is how it is to work, but it doesn't in the state or city that I live. If someone complained to city officials about that sidewalk I live, it would be inspected by the city. I would then receive a 30 day notice to repair/replace it. If I did not comply with the letter, the city would replace it and bill the home/property owner at 3 times the cost a contractor would charge you. You can also be sued should someone get hurt by falling on the broken sidewalk. VIA GOOGLE--In most U.S. cities, the property owner is responsible for repairing and maintaining the sidewalk in front of their house, even though it is part of the public right-of-way. While local governments often own the land, they frequently hold homeowners accountable for repairs, snow removal, and keeping it safe to avoid liability for accidents. [1, 2, 3, 4] 1 Quote
