The City operates a sidewalk repair <br />program, described in Title 8 of the San Leandro Administrative Code, which provides for the <br />repair of sidewalk damage. <br />Minor defects were ground or patched at no charge to adjacent property owners. Larger <br />defects involved removal and replacement of the concrete, however, adjacent property <br />owners must reimburse the City for the full construction cost unless a City street tree is the <br />cause of damage. Property owners and the City split equally the construction cost for <br />damage caused by a City street tree. <br />In addition to the repair of sidewalk, this project included the installation of some sidewalk <br />curb ramps to meet current Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) requirements.
