Whenever the owners of one-half of the frontage upon any sidewalk, curb or gutter
of any street or specified portion of any street within the town shall petition the
board for the construction of such sidewalk, curb or gutter or whenever a two-thirds
majority of all of the members of the board shall decide that such improvements are
necessary, the board may, at any regular meeting, by resolution, order the construction
of such sidewalk, curb or gutter and the cost of construction thereof shall be apportioned
between the owners of the abutting property and the town as follows: the town shall
pay the cost of construction of such sidewalks, curbs and gutters across all streets
and alleys and the owners of the abutting property shall pay all other cost of construction
in proportion to the number of feet each owner has of property fronting or abutting
upon such sidewalk, curb or gutter; provided, however, that the board shall not order
the construction of such improvements or any of them upon such petition unless, in
its opinion, the same will be in the best interest of the town.
