Sidewalks
Sidewalks in Flower Mound are the responsibility of the property owner. The Town maintains sidewalks adjacent to arterial or collector streets and those adjacent to public property, all park trails, and handicap ramps on public streets. The Town does not maintain sidewalks adjacent to private property. The Town does offer a program to assist residents in repairing sidewalks. For more information, please contact the Public Works Department at 972.874.6400 or via email at publicworks@flowermound.com.
Fences
The Town adopted the Perimeter Fence Replacement Program to provide a mechanism to assist residents with replacing wood fencing adjacent to larger arterial or collector roads. Town staff will work directly with a Town-approved fence contractor(s) to determine costs to replace the fence. Residents have the option of paying the Town back the total costs of the fence replacement in one payment or via an 18-month period at no interest. Learn more at www.flower-mound.com/fencereplacement.
