Questions
Common questions, plain answers
- 1
My town is not on the list. Can you still help?
Call and tell us your street. If it is poured concrete around Syracuse, we can usually say whose job it is even when your town has no page.
- 2
How do I find out who owns my road?
Ask your village or town highway office first, then the county if they say it is not theirs. Write down the name of the person who answers.
- 3
Does each town have its own sidewalk rule?
Inside the City of Syracuse the city repairs public sidewalks. Elsewhere it varies, so ask your village or town before you pay for a sidewalk.
- 4
Are the town pages different from the job pages?
Yes. A job page tells you what to ask for. A town page tells you which office to ask and what is common in that place.

Why the place matters
The city, the villages and the towns around Syracuse do not share one rulebook for aprons and sidewalks. County roads add a permit. State roads add another office. You can have a neighbor around the corner who answers to a different one.
What each page gives you
Every place has its own page with the office to ask, the road question for that area and a short page for each of our five jobs. Read yours before you call a contractor, then send the form if you want help with the next step.
