Subject: public forum on safe streets etc.
Unfortunately, I will be at the MHS Awards the night of the forum. =
However
I would like someone to address the deplorable conditions of city =
sidewalks
during winter. I have heard that there is a law on the books requiring
owners to remove snow and ice within a reasonable length of time. There
are many civic minded owners who do this regularly. There are also many
who feel it is not needed because the sun will eventually melt it off
anyway. (some of the latter are local public officials)=20
The questions I would like answered are:
Who is responsible? Home Owner? Renter? Out of town owner? =
Landlord?
Why can't the law be enforced without an individual having to make
specific complaints?=20
I find it amazing that local citizens will walk down the middle of a =
street
to avoid an icy sidewalk.
