§ A328-3. Cost of repair.

The cost of all sidewalk repair made under the provisions of this chapter shall be shared in the following manner:

A. 

All sidewalk repairs abutting upon residential, commercial, or industrial property shall be paid 1/2 by the City and the owner of the property abutting thereon shall pay the remaining 1/2 of the cost.

B. 

The cost assessed against each of said owners shall be required to be fully paid within 30 days after the date of the mailing of notice setting forth his or her share of the cost. If any owner fails to make full payment within said time, the Council may spread the charges so unpaid against the real property of such owner as a special assessment for collection along with current real estate taxes. At the time of certification the City Council shall direct that said special assessment shall be payable in a single installment or the Council may require that it be paid in up to five equal annual installments at 0% interest.

C. 

In cases where the property owner desires to perform their own installation of the sidewalk, upon presentation of the bill, the City will pay for 50% of the concrete cost. No reimbursement for labor will be allowed.

D. 

Sidewalk and driveways shall be measured by surface area in square feet.
