SUBJECT: Payment for sidewalk repair on Regulus Street and Polaris Avenue Dear Property Owner:
On August 8, 2023, September 8, 2023, and June 10, 2024, you were notified that the sidewalk on Regulus Street and Polaris Avenue adjacent to the property you own at 800 Regulus Street, Foster City, California, was out of repair and in condition to endanger persons or property, that property owners are required to maintain sidewalks adjacent to their property pursuant to Streets & Highways Code Sections §5600-5630, and that the subject sidewalk required repair by owner. This repair work was required to include a reconstruction of the damaged area, specifically, saw cut, removal of sidewalk, removal of tree roots, if any, installation of root barrier, and reconstruction of the sidewalk with class “A” concrete.
You were given 21 days from the initial notification on August 8, 2023, to commence repairs and were notified that if you did not commence repairs by that date the Public Works Director for the City of Foster City would make the required repairs to the sidewalk and that the costs incurred by the City in making the repairs to the sidewalk would become a lien on your property if not paid.
You did not commence repairs within the required time frame. The Public Works Director for the City of Foster City therefore undertook the required repairs to the sidewalk and the repairs were completed on June 19, 2024. The cost for these repairs, including an administrative fee and late payment fee, is $10,800.90, which amount is due and payable to the City. Checks should be made payable to “City of Foster City” and mailed to City Hall, 610 Foster. City Boulevard, Foster City CA 94404. Please address the envelope to the attention of the Sidewalk Maintenance Program. Credit card payment can be accepted from individuals coming into City Hall. Credit card transactions may be subject to a convenience fee charged by the credit card company.
As legally mandated, the Public Works Director will prepare a report to be filed with the City Council specifying the repairs that were made, the cost of the repairs, a description of the real property adjacent to which the repairs were made and the assessment against each lot or parcel of land proposed to be levied to pay the cost of repairs. This report will include a description of the property you own at 800 Regulus Street, Foster City, California. If full payment for the repairs is not received within five days after the hearing date set below, the costs incurred by the City in making the repairs to the sidewalk will become a lien on your property.
If you choose to pay this bill prior to the time that the report goes to the City Council, the report will indicate that the payment has been made and no further action will be required.
If you wish to dispute, object or protest this amount, you are invited to attend the City Council meeting at which the City Council will hear and pass upon the Report by the Public Works Director on the cost of the repair.
The City Council meeting at which the City Council is expected to receive a report on the sidewalks that were repaired by the Public Works Director is:
