NSTEP
The Neighborhood Sidewalk Targeted Expansion Program (NSTEP) is the City's program for constructing new sidewalks on City-owned streets. The City established the program in 1999 in response to public comments received through citizen surveys and neighborhood meetings regarding the desire to enhance pedestrian safety and mobility through an improved network of sidewalks.
NSTEP Committee
The City commissioned a citizen advisory committee, which met between January and May of 1999 to develop a program for evaluating sidewalk construction projects, establishing project priority, addressing design and structural issues and identifying funding opportunities.
