Orland Park's sidewalk maintenance program shares costs between the village and adjacent property owners. The 50/50 sidewalk replacement program covers many residential repairs at reduced cost to homeowners.
Public sidewalks in Orland Park abut private property but are within the village right-of-way. The village operates a sidewalk replacement program that typically shares costs with adjacent property owners on a 50/50 basis for routine settlement and minor cracking. The village handles full replacement at its expense when defects result from village-owned tree roots, utility cuts, or general infrastructure failure. Property owners are responsible for snow and ice removal from public sidewalks abutting their property, generally within a specified time after snowfall ends. Defects creating trip hazards (typically vertical displacement greater than 1/2 inch) should be reported via the village service request system, and the village evaluates whether the defect qualifies for the 50/50 program or full village funding. Owners who repair sidewalks without coordination typically must follow village specifications and may not receive cost-sharing reimbursement.
Failure to maintain abutting sidewalk in clearable condition: notice of violation, possible village abatement with billing to owner. Snow removal violations: $50-$200 per occurrence.
