Beavercreek moves sidewalk-repair special assessments to second reading
Summary
Council moved Ordinance 26-17 to a second reading after staff reported the 2025 sidewalk program replaced about 1,300 sq ft of sidewalk across 49 properties; 31 have paid and 18 remain subject to special assessment averaging about $124 payable over five years.
City staff summarized the 2025 sidewalk repair program and asked council to authorize special assessments for outstanding bills. The work focused on the city’s south side neighborhoods (Ashland Hills Country Park and Grass is Run), and staff reported roughly 1,300 square feet of sidewalks were replaced due to misaligned panels and trip hazards.
Staff said 49 properties participated; 31 have paid in full and 18 properties remain with unpaid balances that would be assessed. The average total assessment reported was just over $124, proposed to be collected over five years. The city published a three-week legal notice listing assessments and said no formal objections were received during the statutory review period.
Council moved Ordinance 26-17 to a second reading. One council member said they had voted no in the past and would remain consistent but commended staff for executing the program. No public commenters stepped forward during the hearing portion.
The council did not adopt the ordinance that night; it advanced only to second reading, leaving final assessment amounts contingent on future action.
