Requiring that the DOT maintain curb heights following street construction.
Status: Filed (End of Session) Committee on Transportation and Infrastructure
Sponsored by Robert F. Holden
Introduced: February 24, 2022

Curb heights sometimes are not adequately maintained during street construction and, as a result, flooding of property has occurred. Property owners have subsequently been fined for having ponding conditions on their property. This bill would require that the Department of Transportation ensure that adequate curb heights are maintained following construction in order to prevent flooding and fines for ponding conditions that are not the fault of property owners.
