Neighborhood Sidewalk Repairs

In order to promote safety in Canton neighborhoods, and improve the appearance of the community, Canton has adopted a sidewalk ordinance and program.

Each year, Canton's Engineering Services Division will target a specific zone within the Township.  If your residential or commercial property falls within that zone, you will be responsible for any sidewalk that falls within the public right-of-way. 

Canton's Utility Inspector will place "Green Dots" denoting the resident/business owner is responsible for repairs and "Red Dots" denoting the Township is responsible for sidewalk repairs.

 All subdivision ramps in need of repair will be replaced to meet the guidelines set by the American Disabilities Act (ADA). 

A Public Hearing is typically held in March of each year.  Notification letters are mailed with the time, date and location of the Public Hearing. The letters also include an estimated quantity and cost of the sidewalk to be repaired.
