In reference to "calling L&I" on your "neighbors" it is not what we should
promote as "neighborly behavior". The appropriate response is to talk about
snow issues at your block meeting or in advance of a storm, circulate flyers
"asking" everyone to try and shovel their walk and when others are not done,
pitch in and do theirs as well. When their is a chronic problem perhaps with an
absentee landlord the block or neighbors should send a letter notifying the
entity of the problem and requesting a formal response. If there is no
response, then..call L&I. S. -----Original Message-----

More on the snow ... On 2/14/07, Richard Guffanti #30 <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>

Sidewalks: Dangerous or Unshoveled
Sidewalk and curb maintenance, by city ordinance, is the
responsibility of the property owner. The property owner, agent or
tenant, as the owner may determine, is responsible for removing snow
from the sidewalk at the end of a snowstorm. The regulations require
that there should be a path cleared of not less than 30 inches in
width, on the sidewalk, abutting the property. As a courtesy to your
neighbors and other pedestrians, provide as wide a path as possible,
and cut out handicap ramps and inlets.
If others have dangerous and unshoveled sidewalks, call the Department
of License and Inspections Services and Operations Unit, (215)
686-3140 or use the L&I Online Service and Complaint System.
Plowing and Salting
Call the Streets Department's Customer Affairs Unit at 215-686-5560,
or dial (star) *FIX on your cellular phone (a free cellular call) to
request that your street be plowed or salted following a snow or ice
storm. The representative will route your request to the appropriate
Highway district for service.
Our friends at UC Green ask that you minimize the use of salt whenever
possible as it damages urban trees and the water table.
