Sidewalk Regulations

In an effort to ensure that the street remains uncluttered, clean, accessible, and vibrant for all, the Concord Planning Board and City Council recently collaborated to implement a set of sidewalk regulations. These regulations are in effective January 1, 2019.

The proposed regulations were presented in public meetings to City Council on February 12, 2018; to downtown merchants and property owners at Red River Theatres on May 2, 2018; and to the Planning Board on June 20, 2018. The regulations were ultimately codified as City Ordinance No. 3017 and adopted by City Council on August 13, 2018.
