Miscellaneous Concrete and ADA Ramps Program

Within unincorporated Adams County, the adjacent property owner is responsible for the maintenance of the right-of-way next to their property in accordance with County Regulations. This includes the repair or replacement of concrete improvements such as curb, gutter, and sidewalks.

As part of the County’s strategy to assist property owners with addressing concrete maintenance needs and as part of the County’s commitment to improve accessibility, the County does perform concrete repair with the Miscellaneous Concrete & ADA Ramp Programs.

Property owners may also contract and fund repairs privately. However, any work in the Right-of-Way requires a permit and must conform to the current county standards and specifications.

Repair requests – Reported damage and requested repairs will be inspected and any necessary repairs will be assessed for severity and consideration for immediate repair or for future programming.

Miscellaneous Concrete and ADA Ramp Programs

Concrete damage and hazards are assessed and typically prioritized based on severity, geographical location within the County (corresponding with planned maintenance programming), and/or budgetary constraints. Concentrating this work within programmed areas allows us to make the most of available funding and address a greater number of repairs.

SCHEDULING AND PREPARATION

Before construction starts, the contractor will request utility locates. Please do not remove any stakes or utility locate flags.

Notification of Repair Work

Notifications will be mailed out in advance of the project advising adjacent property owners of the upcoming concrete work. In addition, door hangers will be placed at least two (2) days prior to construction.

CONSTRUCTION

NO PARKING signs will be placed in the immediate work area 1 to 2 days before construction starts. If vehicles are not moved from the work areas, vehicles may be towed to a nearby location to maintain the project’s progress.

  • Concrete removal, replacement
  • Curing of the concrete can last for several days. During colder temperatures, curing process may take longer and construction blankets may be placed over the concrete to protect the concrete from weather.
  • Please avoid watering near construction areas during construction and at least 24 hours after the new concrete is placed as water can damage the concrete surface.

AFTER CONSTRUCTION

Once the cones and signage have been removed, the new concrete is safe to walk on, drive their cars on, and park on the street.

Landscape repairs to sprinklers, grass, and mulch will be performed by the contractor as soon as possible. Please keep the notice until all landscape and sprinkler repairs are resolved.

Asphalt damage caused by the concrete work will be patched by the contractor and may occur towards the end of the overall project.

Please do not apply de-icing materials to new concrete (within one year) as this may cause damage to the concrete.
