SIDEWALK REPLACEMENT

The city of Valparaiso is responsible for maintaining nearly 200 miles of sidewalks. While a sidewalk construction program is being considered through the Pathway Committee, the city currently offers a program to assist homeowners in having their sidewalks repaired. Under the program, Public Works will work with property owners to assess the sidewalk and place sidewalks on a repair list.

Should a property owner wish to have a sidewalk repaired sooner than the list permits, the city will work with property owners who wish to hire their own professional contractor to complete the work. Under this arrangement, Public Works will:

Remove and dispose of the existing sidewalk
Provide utility locates for construction
Pass along the city's contract rate for concrete

In this way, a property owner can expedite the process to have a new sidewalk professionally installed. To be placed on the repair list or initiate the process to have your own walk repaired, contact Public Works at 462-4612 or e-mail us at publicworks@valpo.us.
