(b) The City has the authority and responsibility to issue encroachment permits to private parties to allow for the placement or installation of encroachments on the sidewalk within the right of way according to the terms and conditions established by the City by ordinance or rule subject only to insuring that any permit issued does not in any way interfere with the use of the vehicle travel lanes nor with the safe and efficient use of the sidewalk by pedestrians.

(f) In the event of a disagreement as to whether a sidewalk segment can be repaired or must be replaced, the parties agree that the issue will be resolved by agreement by the City Public Works Director or their designee and the Department of Transportation Maintenance Administrator or their designee. If necessary the Director of the Department of Transportation and the Manager may be asked to resolve the issue. (2) The parties agree that they have a joint and mutual interest to build and maintain the sidewalks in a safe manner. To that end there is a joint responsibility to inspect the sidewalks on a periodic basis, at least annually to discover any potential sections that require repair or replacement. Regardless of who identifies an area of potential harm, they shall immediately notify the other party to the agreement and shall jointly take whatever steps necessary to warn the users of the walk until such time as repair or replacement can be completed. In the event replacement is deemed necessary, temporary repairs may be performed until such time as reconstruction can be programmed and completed.

Upon receipt of the written notice, the State shall respond in writing within thirty (30) calendar days to the City's determination that complete reconstruction is the most reasonable economic alternative for continued maintenance or repair of a sidewalk. If, after notification, the State agrees that reconstruction of all of the sidewalk is the most reasonable economic alternative, the City's duty to maintain the sidewalk shall terminate. If, after notification, the State disagrees that reconstruction is the most reasonable economic alternative, the State may, within an additional thirty (30) calendar days, obtain another opinion from an independent engineer at State expense. If that engineer determines that reconstruction is the most reasonable economic alternative, the City's duty to maintain the sidewalks shall terminate until the reconstruction is completed or as otherwise agreed to by the parties. In the event of a disagreement as to whether complete reconstruction is the most reasonable economic alternative for continued maintenance or repair of a sidewalk the parties agree that the issue will be resolved by agreement by the City Public Works Director or their designee and the Department of Transportation Maintenance Administrator or their designee. If necessary, the Director of the Department of Transportation and Manager may be asked to resolve the issue. (5) If, during its inspections, the City encounters a condition on the sidewalk that it believes is caused by a design or construction defect or by the negligent act or omission of a State agent or employee, the City will immediately notify the State of the existence and location of the defect and provide the State with a detailed explanation of the engineering basis for its belief that the condition is caused by a design or construction defect or the negligent act or omission of a State agent or employee.
