Introduction

This report requests that the  City Council set a public  hearing
for  September 12, 1989, to hear  protests regarding the work and
confirm the assessments of the cost to repair damaged  sidewalks,
driveways and curbs.

Background

On October 9, 1979, the  City Council approved a sidewalk  repair
program which provided  for property  owner participation  in the
cost of repairing damaged sidewalks.  Residential property  owner
participation  is 50% of the cost of the repairs if the damage is
related to  tree roots;  the City  pays the  remaining 50% of the
repair cost.   Property owners are  assessed 100% of  the cost if
the damage is not related  to tree roots and commercial  property
owners are  assessed 100% of the cost  regardless of the cause of
the damage.

Certain repair work has been completed at the following addresses
and  the property owners'  share of the  cost is now  due for the
following properties:   308 Wilshire Boulevard, 1011 Pier Avenue,
1028  Euclid  Street,  1022  Euclid  Avenue,  2525  Main  Street,
