Bill Summary APPROVE 6-0 Bill Joyce, Chief, Engineering & Construction
Management, Public Works Department, and Council Member Lori Boyer, sponsor
of the measure, explained the provisions of the legislation and fielded
questions. To Council Member Reggie
Brown, it appeared that residents or neighborhoods that had the resources
could get sidewalk work done faster than others; that there was an “uneven
playing field.” Council Member Robin
Lumb thought that if residents wanted to spend their own money for sidewalk
improvements, we would encourage them to take advantage of that option that
the proposed legislation provided. |
