Furious Nebraska homeowners have been left bewildered after being hit with bills up to $1,700 to repair public sidewalks that they didn’t damage or are located directly in front of their homes. Residents in an Omaha neighborhood were tasked to repair walkways that are behind their properties, as well as panels that lead to the “sidewalk to nowhere,” WOWT-TV reported. In Omaha, property owners must repair unsafe sidewalks, as per the city’s municipal code, and can do the work themselves or hire a contractor, but homeowners have pointed out they are not responsible for other maintenance tasks such as mowing grassy areas or snow removal.
