Shared Cost Sidewalk Program The Shared Cost Program has proven to be a successful partnership between the
Village and the property owners. Each year, between January and April,
applications are accepted by the Engineering Staff from property owners,
including businesses, interested in replacing sections of the public sidewalk
adjacent to their property. The deadline for accepting applications this year is
May 1, 2008.
