[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Yes it sucks. I slipped on ice in front of a neighbor's house a couple years ago and broke my wrist in 2 places. We are all responsible for maintaining our own sidewalks and this one has not been well maintained and accumulates water then ice when it freezes. Later I saw that person out front and told them what happened. They just stared at me and went inside. That summer they put yellow tape on the problem area and sold the house. [/quote] How does a home owner “maintain” a sidewalk other than shoveling, icing, and not leaving obstructions in place? Homeowners aren’t responsible for digging out concrete sidewalks on bad repair and getting them re poured. That is the city’s job. [/quote] We had an issue with the sidewalk in front of our house. We informed VDOT (I think? Maybe the county) and they came out and repaired it. Water gathers in that spot, so in a few years we will have to ask them to repair it again.[/quote]
