Press Release: City of Inkster Sidewalk Repair Program

The City of Inkster is happy to announce assistance for sidewalk repairs to Inkster residents. As a result of the Housing and Urban Development (HUD) funded Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) Program, through Wayne County, we are able to offer grant assistance up to $1,000 to residents who qualify for the program.

The goal of the Sidewalk Repair Program is to repair and replace dangerous sidewalks to secure pedestrian safety throughout the city. Efforts will focus on replacement of concrete which poses a threat to public safety, such as poor concrete alignment, disintegrated surfaces, holding water, etc. An application is required to determine eligibility. Grant funding is limited and will be disbursed on a first come first served basis with emphasis being placed on the areas of greatest need.
