Garza reported that 1.2 of 49 sidewalks remain to be "fixed" due to tree roots lifting; the
sidewalk and causing cracks. Thirty-seven of those sidewalks required replacement and
have been replace. He explained they may not all be completely ADA compliant, but the
compliance specialist deemed they were acceptable due to alternate routes being available.
He also explained that the cost to each of the remaining 12 will be different because they
will be including the removal of trees. The board asked for the costs and he stated he would
bring back more detailed estimates of the costs. He also stated they are looking at different
varieties of trees that could be used for street trees, with roots that would not cause such
sidewalk problems.
