I'm glad you're there and got to talk to him, Lee.
Have I mentioned that I am not in favor of mortality? I am not.

I know if you request sections of new sidewalk, or have to destroy a section, they'll bill you for replacement, but not if it is part of the normal replacement schedule.

Or if the cause of damage is city trees. Which is largely the problem here.

The damage to my sidewalk is from city trees, but I think I would still need to pay for it.

That is adorbs! I haven't seen the series, but I read enough of the books to understand.

City code actually says explicitly that if their trees (=betwixt sidewalk and street,which is considered their property,) their problem. However, my neighbors have been calling FOR YEARS about the sidewalks and no response. Figure this is part of a larger plan.
You aren't even supposed to privately prune their trees, city job. Took Anna 3 years before the city pruned our tree. (Now we have a standing call-every-year, keep us in whatever queue, but we also prune it ourselves so it doesn't hang over our porch roofs.)

The only thing between our sidewalk and the street is gutter.
