Chicago's Snow and Ice Ordinance

Yes, I am a pedestrian for most of the year. I use our public transportation system and have to admit that it sure makes for less stress. So when I got this tidbit from one of the Alderman offices I just had to share (of course I did a little jig first).

During these cold winter months please remember to shovel your sidewalk, not only is it the neighborly thing to do, but it is also the law.

We are all pedestrians at some point in the day, whether walking to the bus, to a car, or to a neighborhood store. Without a wide, clear path, snow and ice on the sidewalk make it difficult for everyone - especially people with disabilities, seniors, and children - to walk safely.

Be a good neighbor and offer help to those in your community who are physically unable to clear their own sidewalks.
