Since 2011, Walkable Winnetka has repaired more than 7,000 linear feet of sidewalk. Here’s how it works: the City provides an estimate for the repairs; if you accept the estimate, the City will pay for part of the cost (50% for front sidewalks and 75% for sides on corner lots), Walkable Winnetka pays for 75% of the remainder (max. $700), and you pay the outstanding balance. Contact us to learn more or begin the process.
