Requested locations, but not yet funded

The Board of Commissioners approve approximately $500,000 annually for new sidewalk construction. The following document contains a ranked listing of all new sidewalk requests. It should be noted that while some projects on this list may be funded, they are not yet under design.

Sidewalk Locations (Listed by Rank)

Sidewalk rankings are updated as new requests are received and are subject to change. Sidewalks chosen to be constructed in the upcoming fiscal year are selected by rank from the prioritized list as of March 1. Any new requests received after March 1 are entered and analyzed for consideration in subsequent years. The number of projects chosen for construction in a given year is dependent upon available funding.
