All--Sidewalks are a difficult issue to tackle for cities.  Just wondering if anyone is utilizing a section of the Streets & Highway Code, specifically 5611-5614, where the entity places the property owner on notice? I have added some of the language below for review.  If you are utilizing this process, would you mind sending me a sample of the notice that is sent out.  Thank you in advance for your assistance!   

5611. When any portion of the sidewalk is out of repair or pending reconstruction and in condition to endanger persons or property or in condition to interfere with the public convenience in the use of such sidewalk, the superintendent of streets shall notify the owner or person in possession of the property fronting on that portion of such sidewalk so out of repair, to repair the sidewalk.

5612. Notice to repair may be given by delivering a written notice personally to the owner or to the person in possession of the property facing upon the sidewalk so out of repair, or by mailing a postal card, postage prepaid, to the person in possession of such property, or to the owner thereof at his last known address as the same appears on the last equalized assessment rolls of such city or to the name and address of the person owning such property as shown in the records of the office of the clerk.
