Reader needs to contact board about sidewalk damage Posted: 06 Jun 2009 02:01 AM PDT Q: I unfortunately live in a planned unit development. The association is responsible for the front landscape and I am responsible for the sidewalk from my drive to the front door. A tree has sent a root under my sidewalk cracking it.

I'm quite sure that if I took out the front tree, the association would rightly say it was my responsibility to replace it.
