4.4 SIDEWALKS: RESIDENTIAL AND PEDESTRIAN GENERATOR POLICY
Where:
-
A paved road is currently without sidewalks; and,
-
Abutting property owners have requested in writing sidewalks be installed; or
-
The City initiates the installation of sidewalks as a local improvement
The abutting property owners will be assessed for:
-
100% of the cost, per metre of frontage, for the construction of concrete sidewalks;
-
100% of the cost for boulevard restoration.
In addition, where flankage properties exist, those property owners will be assessed for:
-
25% of the cost, per metre of flankage, for the construction of sidewalks and boulevard restoration for the first 45 metres of lot flankage;
-
100% of the cost for any remaining works over and above the first 45 metres of lot flankage.
The City will pay:
- The remainder of the total cost of the work, as outlined in section 4.6.
New sidewalks will be constructed to meet the Accessibility for Ontarians with Disabilities Act (AODA) requirements, except where the safety of pedestrians warrants a greater width, or the City Engineer determines a greater width is necessary and/or desirable.
Where a residential sidewalk is constructed wider than the AODA standard, the abutting property owners will only be assessed for a standard AODA width sidewalk. The City will pay the balance of the cost in addition to the amounts set out above.
