Anglers Inn (the property where the sidewalk is) was required to build a new sidewalk during their renovation.
Since there wasn't already a sidewalk on the adjacent property, there was no way to require them to connect it to anything.
Seems stupid, is stupid, but really no way to account for it.

This is just how cities do this. They require every business that builds or renovates to extend the side walk. Over the next 19-15 years all the sidewalks will be updated and at no cost to the taxpayers.
It’s a slow but effective method.
