Hillsborough County is responsible for the sidewalks in our neighborhood and the county assigns a certain amount of funds each year to sidewalk repair/replacement.

If you have sidewalk damage that is causing a hazard in front of your home you must submit a request to Hillsborough Public Works to get it on record. The county will come out and look at the area and if deemed bad enough a work order will be opened and added to their queue to repair at a later date.

If we have enough filed we can try to complain to the Commissioner’s office to help expedite versus waiting years for repairs.
