City Ignores & Allows SIDEWALKS To Go To WASTE So I Cleaned Them Up For FREE

I decided to revisit an old sidewalk that i've kept my eye on over the years. I always thought the city would get them cleaned up. However, as you can see, it has never happened! Out of curiosity, I decided to check the old google maps photos of this corner. I was shocked to find out that these sidewalks, along with the ones around it, have not been touched for over 15 years. I'm not too sure what was on this land before, but I assume by the stairways, it could have had 3 homes on it, or a possible park? Not too sure. Either way, they both will look like new soon. Hope you enjoy this one! The other side will get done as well. Have a great day, and be a blessing to your community :)

Who's responsible for sidewalk maintenance in your city?

@nucman7529 Год назад

property owner adjacent to sidewalk

@mandycote5662 Год назад

Great question Public property is supposed to be the ‘communities’ responsibility However- where I live I take care of walkways and boulevard- trees are left to be trimmed by the wind Otherwise- empty lots - depends on ownership and over here- it doesn’t matter- small town dive like a ghetto - over here in Sk Canada🇨🇦

How amazing. Your poor back must be screaming. And I just love the brush attachment. Sure saves how much you have to use the blower. What a surprise when you uncovered the big step! Yes, don't litter. There can be all kinds of natural stuff but human litter drives me nuts. That metal thing you found? I think that's a cigarette maker. I'm so proud of you. The respect you show is heartwarming. ❤

@debibrown5568 Год назад

We have a crew that works for our city that mows all city areas and sidewalk areas, but I notice a lot of homeowners take on the areas in front of their houses because they want to or their lawn service does it. Our city is good about trimming trees or whatever if you call them for city property. First time I’ve seen a brush attachment on RU-vid! Great job, but a big job! - watching from Lake Wales,Florida

@RodneyFreeman Год назад

Been waiting all winter for the lawns and sidewalks! Great video and I look forward to many more!! Stay safe out there and God bless you for all you do. When our time on this old world is done, the only thing we can take with us is love. You certainly seem to possess a lot of that.

@stacey8096 Год назад

Another awesome video, Fill. Speaking as someone who works for a city, we don’t have enough employees to take care of our own property, like all the parks, cemetery, airport, and ditches. Historically, in the summer we hire seasonal maintenance workers for all the extra work like nuisance properties when people won’t mow and take care of their own. We can’t get enough full-time people let alone summer help now. In our city sidewalks are the homeowners responsibility. Unfortunately that kind of thing falls to the bottom of the list when it comes to what’s the most important thing to do for our city.

@fillslawncare Год назад

Thank you for sharing, Stacey. This information is very helpful. Although, I know each city is different.

That brush roller is awesome, Fill! Absolutely love watching you clean up the nasty curbs and sidewalks!👍🏻💙💚 Here, all sidewalks are the responsibility of the property owner; spreading the liability!

@jackieostrander9667 Год назад

We have a problem with old ordinances and laws. As our city has developed and expanded with new neighborhoods, they now require sidewalks. They didn't used to. So now we have a bunch of "sidewalks to nowhere ". They don't connect. It's still not fixing the issues for the disabled, or another forgotten bunch, the people for whatever reason that don't drive. I like your power broom. It seems faster and more directionally precise than the blower. Better than blowing dust every time. Nice to have that choice.

Do not know that one, always thought if there was a trash can at the end of the blocks, people would throw their trash in it. But having worked at a gas station, needing to clean the parking lot at night, I have seen people changing their babies dirty diapers. not even walk just a couple steps to put it a trash can, that was not even half full, they just threw it on the ground right were they were standing got in the car and drove away, that is how lazy or just entitled alot of people are.

@helendaly5030 Год назад

That was a challenge for sure. Great brush tool for doing that job. Cities don't seem to care about neighborhoods anymore with vacant lots. If they know the owners they usually put up warning signs to clean up. Apparently that town doesn't or else the town is the owner and doesn't fine themselves. Surprised neighbors don't complain. Thanks for caring and doing that fabulous cleanup. Looks Soo much better.
