Thanks, Nemo Nemo Stephenson Maintenance Superintendent 3 Please confirm if the City will be responsible for these repairs and can put this one on the schedule to be completed. Thank you, Casey Casey Lynch Vice President, Real Estate Email: casey.lynch@chedrauiusa.com Office: (323) 869 7923 Mobile: (323) 793 2514 www.chedrauiusa.com CHEDRAUI USA, Inc. 600 Citadel Drive, Commerce, CA 90040 Areas of less severe damage are completed as the next priority, working around the City in a systematic fashion in advance of the paving program. That can mean the sidewalk will not be replaced for several years. Damage other than that caused by street trees needs to be completed by the property owner. Related to sidewalk repair is clearance and visibility. When is maintenance required? • Visibility – When parkway strip shrubbery interferes with the ability of a driver to see pedestrians or approaching traffic, either from a driveway or an intersection, trimming of shrubs must be completed by the property owner. Shrubs must be trimmed to a maximum height of 36”, for a minimum distance of 30’ from an intersection. (Municipal Code 10.60 and 17.16.020) • Walkway and Gutter Clearance – Trimming of ground cover or shrubs is required when the plants extend onto or over the sidewalk, gutter, or street. • Parkway Strip Condition – All tree stumps, large rocks, trash and holes must be removed by the property owner. The parkway strip must be level and holes must be filled and leveled with dirt or other material. When is a permit required for landscape maintenance work? If the sidewalk or the street must be closed for the work, a permit is required from Public Works. Call (805)781-7015 for additional information. If a tree is to be removed, a tree removal permit must be obtained. Applications for tree removal are available on the City’s web site on the Public Works page www.slocity.org or call 781-7220 for additional information. Rev 1.14.13 Sidewalk & Parkway Strip Maintenance Property Owner Responsibilities Department of Public Works 805-781-7220 805-781-7015 City of San Luis Obispo 25 Prado Road San Luis Obispo, CA 93401 The City receives many requests from citizens to make repairs to sidewalks. This brochure provides general information to the public on this subject. What is the sidewalk, parkway, and curb and gutter? The sidewalk, parkway strip, and curb & gutter are typically made of concrete and located next to the street on the front and/or side portion of your property. The curb and gutter are located at the edge of the street pavement. The sidewalk is either separated from the curb by a parkway strip, or is located adjacent to the curb. Parkways are sometimes planted or filled in with brick or other materials. Who is responsible for maintenance? The property owner is responsible for properly maintaining this area (see San Luis Obispo Municipal Code Section 12.16.020 and Streets and Highway Code Division 7, Part 3, Chapter 22). This responsibility includes maintenance of damaged or displaced concrete and abatement of weeds or debris. While the City may be liable for injuries to pedestrians that are determined to have resulted from a dangerous condition of a public sidewalk, property owners should be aware that they may also be found liable if it is determined that their negligence caused someone to be harmed. When should property owners consider doing sidewalk replacement? Replacement of the sidewalk, curb and gutter concrete should be considered when one or more of the following exists: • When there is a vertical difference in height between sections of the sidewalk or concrete parkway strip of 3/4” or more. • If the concrete has broken apart. • In any instance where the owner has reason to know that the condition presents a danger to users, or the owner has observed someone trip because of damage to the surface. In addition to damaged sections of sidewalk, curb and gutter replacement is typically required when sidewalks and driveways are replaced, unless the sidewalk is separated from the curb by a parkway. Patching should be completed when horizontal openings greater than 1/2” exist. What are the options available for completing the work? The City recommends construction of curbs, gutters, and sidewalks in City streets be performed by a properly licensed and insured contractor. A permit is required for concrete repair. Call (805)781-7015 for permit requirements. Are there inspections and standards for concrete repair work? Yes, all work and materials must be in conformance with the City of San Luis Obispo Engineering Standards for Public Works Construction. Before placing any concrete, you must have any tree root removal approved, and the saw cut, forms, and base inspected. After approval, a City-approved concrete mix must be used. The surface finish must be a light broom finish with score marks. After the work is completed, you must call for a final inspection. A permit is required for all concrete work in the public right-of-way. Engineering Standards for construction are available on the City’s web site on the Public Works page www.slocity.org. For information on obtaining a permit call (805)781- 7015. Is the property owner responsible for repairs if the concrete damage is caused by a tree? The City encourages street trees in front of residences. (Municipal Code 12.24.010) The property owner is responsible for the maintenance of the street tree but the City will repair the sidewalk when the concrete has been damaged by a street tree, as funding is available, and timed with the area rotation program. Concrete damaged by trees other than street trees is the responsibility of the property owner. Maintenance, trimming and replacement of street trees and shrubs is governed by Chapter 12.24.110, 12.24.120 and 12.24.150 of the Municipal Code. What measures should be taken to minimize concrete displacement by tree roots? Certain species of trees may raise concrete if preventative maintenance is not performed. To reduce the chance of future concrete displacement, trees can be root-pruned. Care must be taken when root pruning to avoid damaging underground utilities or destabilizing or harming the tree. This work must be completed by a licensed arborist. Also, deep- watering the tree, that is, applying a slow trickle of water over a 24-hour period, encourages deeper root growth which reduces the chance of sidewalk damage. If a problem is reported to the City, how long does it take for a repair? When a report is made to the City, it is entered in to the work order program. Subject to the availability of resources and personnel, the City will attempt to review the site within a week of entry of the work order. If a temporary repair, such as grinding or ramping the area can be made, the City will generally attempt to complete that work within two weeks. Severe damage caused by a street tree, which cannot be repaired adequately, will be reconstructed as soon as resources and available personnel allow. 2 Michele Tompkins NKT Commercial, LLC / PEDP, Inc.

This section of sidewalk at property behind 1321 Johnson, is considered a dangerous condition that must be mitigated. The condition of the concrete has deteriorated so severely that a temporary repair effort by Public Works staff would fail in a very short time and make the sidewalk more of a hazard. This sidewalk was brought to our attention by a citizen complaint. The City of San Luis Obispo’s Municipal Code identifies the curb, gutter and sidewalk adjacent to your property as being the maintenance responsibility of the property owner, o 12.16.020 Property owner’s responsibility – City Municipal Code The maintenance, repair and collection of the cost of repair shall be governed by the procedure set forth in Division 7, Part 3, Chapter 22 of the Streets and Highways Code of the state. (Prior code § 7330.1) The appropriate sections of the Streets and Highway Code are included as an attachment to this letter. Below are some incremental timeframes to complete the work. • Within 30 calendar days of this letter, you must acknowledge receipt of this letter. • Within 60 calendar days of this letter, you must submit to the City the necessary repair plans for the issuance of an encroachment permit. • Within 90 calendar days of this letter, you must obtain an encroachment permit from the City to complete the necessary repair work. • Within 120 calendar days of this letter, you must complete the necessary repair work to the satisfaction of the City. This repair work can be costly; if you prefer to propose alternate timeframes for consideration, please submit those in writing to me within 30 calendar days of this letter. Failure to comply with this request could lead to formal Notices to Correct being issued with accelerated repair timeframes as required by the Streets and Highways Code.

The owners of lots or portions of lots fronting on any portion of a public street or place when that street or place is improved or if and when the area between the property line of the adjacent property and the street line is maintained as a park or parking strip, shall maintain any sidewalk in such condition that the sidewalk will not endanger persons or property and maintain it in a condition which will not interfere with the public convenience in the use of those works or areas save and except as to those conditions created or maintained in, upon, along, or in connection with such sidewalk by any person other than the owner, under and by virtue of any permit or right granted to him by law or by the city authorities in charge thereof, and such persons shall be under a like duty in relation thereto. 5611. When any portion of the sidewalk is out of repair or pending reconstruction and in condition to endanger persons or property or in condition to interfere with the public convenience in the use of such sidewalk, the superintendent of streets shall notify the owner or person in possession of the property fronting on that portion of such sidewalk so out of repair, to repair the sidewalk. 5612. Notice to repair may be given by delivering a written notice personally to the owner or to the person in possession of the property facing upon the sidewalk so out of repair, or by mailing a postal card, postage prepaid, to the person in possession of such property, or to the owner thereof at his last known address as the same appears on the last equalized assessment rolls of such city or to the name and address of the person owning such property as shown in the records of the office of the clerk. 5613. The postal card shall contain a notice to repair the sidewalk so out of repair, and the superintendent of streets shall, immediately upon the mailing of the notice, cause a copy thereof printed on a card of not less than 8 inches by 10 inches in size, to be posted in a conspicuous place on the property. In lieu of posting a copy of the mailed notice on the property as provided in this section, the superintendent of streets may, not less than seven days nor more than 10 days after the mailing of the first postal card notice, mail an additional postal card, postage prepaid, marked “Second Notice,” to the person to whom the first postal card notice was addressed. The second notice shall otherwise contain the material required by this article but shall not extend the time for commencing repairs specified in Section 5614. 5614. The notice shall particularly specify what work is required to be done, and how it is to be done, and what materials shall be used in the repair and shall further specify that if the repair is not commenced within two weeks after notice is given and diligently and without interruption prosecuted to completion, the superintendent of streets shall make such repair, and the cost of the same shall be a lien on the property. 5614.1. The legislative body may adopt a resolution determining that bonds shall be issued, and assessments collected and enforced pursuant to Part 5 of this division. In such event, the notice to repair shall specify that bonds shall be issued to represent the s ecurity of the unpaid assessments, payable over a period of not to exceed six years, and shall further recite a maximum rate of interest to be paid on the indebtedness, which shall not exceed 7 percent a year, payable semiannually. 5615. If the repair is not commenced and prosecuted to completion with due diligence, as required by the notice, the superintendent of streets shall forthwith repair the sidewalk. Upon the written request of the owner of the property facing the sidewalk so out of repair, as ascertained from the last equalized assessment roll of the city, or as shown in the records of the office of the clerk, the superintendent may repair any other portion of the sidewalk fronting on the property that is designated by the owner.

This section of sidewalk at property behind 1321 Johnson, is considered a dangerous condition that must be mitigated. The condition of the concrete has deteriorated so severely that a temporary repair effort by Public Works staff would fail in a very short time and make the sidewalk more of a hazard. This sidewalk was brought to our attention by a citizen complaint. The City of San Luis Obispo’s Municipal Code identifies the curb, gutter and sidewalk adjacent to your property as being the maintenance responsibility of the property owner, o 12.16.020 Property owner’s responsibility – City Municipal Code The maintenance, repair and collection of the cost of repair shall be governed by the procedure set forth in Division 7, Part 3, Chapter 22 of the Streets and Highways Code of the state. (Prior code § 7330.1) The appropriate sections of the Streets and Highway Code are included as an attachment to this letter. Below are some incremental timeframes to complete the work. • Within 30 calendar days of this letter, you must acknowledge receipt of this letter. • Within 60 calendar days of this letter, you must submit to the City the necessary repair plans for the issuance of an encroachment permit. • Within 90 calendar days of this letter, you must obtain an encroachment permit from the City to complete the necessary repair work. • Within 120 calendar days of this letter, you must complete the necessary repair work to the satisfaction of the City. This repair work can be costly; if you prefer to propose alternate timeframes for consideration, please submit those in writing to me within 30 calendar days of this letter. Failure to comply with this request could lead to formal Notices to Correct being issued with accelerated repair timeframes as required by the Streets and Highways Code.
