A homeowner's $7,588.40 sidewalk replacement bill was wiped off the books after Ald. Galvin's appeal — a win for one property owner, but three alders thought the owner should pay.
Improvement and Services Committee - Jan 28, 2026
A property owner spent $1,640 on mudjacking and grinding to fix sidewalk sections, but never formally told the city the work was done — so the city's contractor replaced everything and billed $10,838.40. The committee split 2-2 on two compromise reductions and sent the appeal to the full council with no recommendation.
Improvement and Services Committee - Jan 14, 2026
A property owner got billed nearly $11,000 after the city replaced sidewalk he'd already partially repaired, because he never formally notified the city the work was done. The committee couldn't agree how to split the bill and punted to the next meeting.
