The short answer that you are as the homeowner are response al for the mape of the sidewalk in front of your home, but if the city damages the sidewalk as is claimed in this case, well, that may change everything.

Reporter true shows me the damage caused he said when a small city trash truck ran up on the sidewalk in front of his home on the 500 block of garrett street on the morning of september 12th. True says he saw the truck go by that morning. Seconds later a neighbor came by to report what she had seen.

Roar report your neighbor actually said to you i saw the truck go over it and it collapse. Yes sir. Reporter true got the trucks license number before it turned the corner and reported the damage to the city as he was instructeed to the city reminded true of the government immunity tort act.

Bock truants his local government to fix what theyve broken. It could be a couple of weeks before Risk Management rules on liability for the sidewalk damage. Now, if the city is libel, they still want true to file a claim with his homeowners insurance. If the claim is paid, the city will cover trues 500 deductible. If the claim is rejected, this gets kind of interesting, the city would then pick up the entire tab. But, again, first they have to accept responsibility for the damage. Iain, well keep you posted.
