Sidewalk Maintenance

Per Tualatin Municipal Code 2-02, the care, maintenance, and repair of sidewalks are the responsibility of the property owner. However, we are responsible for evaluating Tualatin’s 150+ miles of sidewalks as part of the City’s Sidewalk Maintenance Program and can help guide you in maintenance and repair.
