Sidewalk Replacement Program
The Sidewalk Improvement Program assists property owners in meeting their legal requirements (City Code) by helping identify and repair hazards, as well as providing technical and financial assistance (where applicable). If a sidewalk is incorporated into an approach/driveway but not properly defined, the City will consider this as driveway approach and the owner will be 100% responsible for all costs to resolve any hazards.
It is the policy of the City of Smithville to enter into a cost-share agreement with property owners within city limits to repair sidewalks.
