Too many of the places I do walk I walk over more unshoveled walks than shoveled ones. This causes much trouble for handicapped citizens all over the city. I see way too many people walking in the street because the walks are so bad.
It could just be that those sidewalks belong to elderly or handicapped folks who are having trouble just getting the walk shoveled to the street. Instead of Fines maybe the city should have a phone in line for folks who are shut in or unable to shovel and we could have a work crew from corrections (like those in the orange vests or jumpsuits cleaning the parks and streets in the summer) clear sidewalks in the winter.
