Snow on Sidewalks- Municipal Code
SMC 12.02.010 requires
the adjoining property owner to be responsible for sidewalks including
cracked, heaved, damaged or snow covered and they may be liable if a party
becomes injured on that sidewalk. These provisions of the SMC are under the
jurisdiction of the Street Department at 232-8800, however, the Street
Department has indicated that they do not enforce the removal of snow from
public sidewalks due to a number of factors including:
o
Snow may be placed on sidewalks by snow
removal equipment in the street, the city does not wish to be punitive to
property owners.
o
The City does not have the resources
(financial or personnel) to clear sidewalks.
The City encourages
citizens to communicate with property owners their needs for accessing the
sidewalks. Notices have gone out the last two winters to all utility bill
accounts providing this information about snow removal.
For those that need
assistance with snow removal, a number of service agencies may be able to
help. One such agency is Catholic Charities at 328-8400 which will help
elderly and disabled with snow removal. Another agency is Gonzaga University
for residents in the Logan Neighborhood as part of their service learning
requirements.
