There are increasing issues with concrete damage and street potholes. For all city streets in PCVA, homeowners can report pothole issues on the GoCOS! website, https://coloradosprings.gov/public-works/page/concrete-maintenance.
Homeowners must maintain the concrete adjacent to their homes, specifically sidewalks and driveways. These areas should be kept free of damage, holes, degradation, and major heaves between sidewalk slabs.
Visit https://coloradosprings.gov/public-works/page/concrete-maintenance and learn about the City “cost share” program, where the homeowner and the City can split the costs of severe sidewalk repairs.
Why is this important to the homeowners, if the City has the responsibility to maintain our sidewalks? From the website: “Even though property owners are not responsible for the maintenance of the concrete adjacent to their property, property owners are not relieved of any legal liability regarding their sidewalk. If they are willing to pay half the cost of repairing the concrete, the work can be expedited.”
