The right-of-way line is typically 5’ behind the curb or edge, or 10’ if there is a planter strip. For horizontal clearance, be sure pedestrian traffic will not be impeded. Trees and brush must not extend into the sidewalk. For corners of streets and alleys, be sure there is a visual clearance of 15’ from a corner (forming a triangle shape).

Even area wide average precipitation could total close to an inch, and locally higher totals of 3 to 4 inches are possible, especially where a storm persists, or multiple storms hit the same location. As a result, flash flooding will be possible, especially in areas with saturated soils from heavy rain in recent days.
