50/50 concrete program
Who’s responsible for sidewalk repairs?
If you own property next to a sidewalk, driveway approach, or curb and gutter, you’re responsible for keeping them in good shape—even though they’re in the public right of way (City Ordinance 14.32.305). You can hire your own contractor to make repairs, but you’ll need a permit to do the work.
Help with repair costs
If you’re a residential property owner, you may qualify for Salt Lake City’s 50/50 Concrete Program. This program splits the cost of repairs between you and the City. If you own a commercial property, you must pay the full cost up front before the work can be scheduled.
How it works
- Free cost estimates are available.
- Projects are scheduled in the order they’re received.
- To get a free estimate, contact Kyle Biggs at kyle.biggs@slc.gov or 801-535-6934.
- Once payment is received, you’ll be added to the waitlist.
What repairs are included?
- Sidewalk, driveway approach, and curb and gutter repair or replacement (50/50 for residential, 100% for commercial)
- ADA ramp replacements
- Waterway construction
