A Joint Safety Services and Neighborhood Concerns Committee meeting was held on Monday evening. Howard Elstro, Lima’s Public Works Director gave a presentation on the need for curbing and sidewalk replacement throughout the city. He estimated that around 60% of the blocks in the city would need curbs replaced and gave multiple options and estimates based on how extensive of a repair is done. The responsibility of replacing curbs and sidewalks is on the homeowner, but one councilman hopes that they can offset some of the costs.
