This bill clarifies and expands municipal authority over sidewalk management by changing the requirement that cities "shall" prescribe sidewalk specifications to saying they "may" do so, giving them more flexibility. It also allows municipalities to use resolutions (rather than just ordinances) to require property owners to construct sidewalks in locations the city designates near public roads or property.
