Sidewalks??

As we all know, the city has a law on the books requiring people to
clean the snow and ice off of the sidewalks in front of their houses. This
law is largely ignored because most people have the welfare of the public
in mind and do clean the sidewalks.

There are a few, however, who do not bother. It is my experience that
these are mostly landlords who do not much care.

The question I have for all of you who might know is this. Is the
city of Moscow responsible for cleaning the snow and ice off the sidewalks
which cross city maintained alleys? Can the city be charged under the law
for not cleaning these sidewalks?
