of course they should be saved and restored. on new development or remodels, the red tile walks should be manitory on when development is 50% or greater over the exsting square footage.

All these elements, (such as the sidewalks) are what creates the charm & uniqueness of San Clement. It will be a real "sin" to replace them!!

Some things are well worth preserving. Once gone they are lost forever.

Preserve, restore, rehabilitate or replace with new 'Ole Hanson' replica tiles.

Have loved the red tile sidewalk outside my house for 30+ years. Makes my community unique and preserves the plan of our Southwest San Clemente early planners!!

A easy thing to save once it is concrete they can never be returned.

The sidewalks should be preserved - at the City Government's expense, what's more. Once lost, they can never be reclaimed, only adding to the slow demise of San Clemente's charm.

Yes! The city should work hand in hand with property owners to preserve this historic resource. It benefits everyone!

This is not about keeping San Clemente as it once was. It is about defining San Clemente as it is right now and into the future. These sidewalks and other historical characteristics are a major part of what defines the city of San Clemente. Save, preserve and ensure the lasting legacy of this beautiful city.

continuity of surface is safer. Maintaining the character of the community is essential.

It adds to the character and charm of San Clemente. In this world of "cookie-cutter" neighborhoods, we really need to preserve the historical look.
