FROM: J. Michael Walford, Public Works Director
SUBJECT: Report on Sidewalk Hazard Abatement a Ocean View Drive, Bay Point Area
'O.l10
This report is in reference to the August 10, 1999 Hearing on the confirmation of the sidewalk repair
cost for the hazard abatement at 48 Ocean View Drive, in the Bay Point area.
In late 1994, we became aware through citizen complaints of sidewalk problems in the Bay Point
area. Since January of 1995, our Department notified approximately 70 residents in the Bay Point
area that the aging sidewalks in front of their homes were in disrepair and required replacement. In
many cases, the sidewalks were badly cracked and broken,were a hazard to the public and presented
the County with a liability problem if left unrepaired. Among the resident notified was Kenneth
Erkson owning the property at 48 Ocean View Drive. In accordance with the Streets and Highways
Code of the State of California, it is the responsibility of the property owner to maintain the sidewalk
fronting their property in a safe condition.
Since our initial notifications in 1995, all of the residents we contacted have complied with our
reque-t to replace their hazardous sidewalks with the exception of the Mr. Erkson and two other
home owners. Normally, we give the property owners ample opportunity to replace their sidewalks
since it's usually less expensive for them to arrange for the work. Since 1995, we have sent
numerous notices to these property owners with the hope of eventual compliance, When Mr. Erkson
failed to replace his sidewalk, we again sent follow up letters in 1996 and posted his property in
accordance with the Streets and Highways Code. After it became apparent that the sidewalk was not
going to be repaired, we requested bids from 10 licensed contractors to make the necessary repairs.
The contractor who submitted the bid of$960 completed the sidewalk repair in October of 1996.
We have billed Mr. Erkson for$1,042.80 which represents the total cost, including administrative
costs, as allowed by the Streets and Highways Code. Since Mr. Erkson has not paid the bill after
many attempts of collection, we recommend that the cost of repair together with a property tax roll
collection fee of$250.76 be assessed against his property as a lien.
