Call the Streets Department, 215-686-5560. From their site: Reminder to Philadelphia residents/property owners: Within six hours of the end of a snowfall or freezing rain, you must clear a path at least 30 inches wide on your sidewalk. Do not shovel or sweep the snow into the street. The penalty for violating this regulation can range from a minimum fine of $25 up to $300 for each violation.
