The situation we drafted the Ordinance to address was that private operators were pushing the snow to the opposite side of the street. City plows would then inadvertently push the snow to the next void - another driveway - which really irritated that homeowner. It should apply here unless the enforcement agency, as Alder Clear related, is concerned about the status of a transportation corridor (bike path) versus a street.
I suspect that some education of the contractor and the operators is necessary. Ordinances and inforcement actions don't mean jack until you talk to the guy on the truck. BI can direct the landowner to get his snow off the public property. And, we will probably have to do it again next year as well. Larry D.

I'm checking on whether the snow dumping ordinance (10.23(2) <http://library.municode.com/HTML/50000/Chapter%2010%20-%20Streets,%20Alleys ,%20Sidewalks,%20and%20Gutters.pdf#page=63> ) applies to bike paths. Preliminary indication is yes, but if not I will propose an amendment to ensure it does. Mark C. On 2/4/2014 8:09 PM Paul T. O'Leary wrote: You can be cited for pushing snow into the street. I'm sure if they dumped this snow onto the Avenue, a citation would promptly ensue. Gotta wonder if the ordinance applies here, and if the enforcement would be applied here as well. --- This email is free from viruses and malware because avast!
