The lack of snow shoveling (which IS against the law) seems to fall on deaf ears, but you better believe the landlords have plenty to say when the tenant is doing their part. Uptown needs a lot more people like Dave Forristal.

Dave is the property manager of Lakeside Place Apartments on Kenmore between Buena and Montrose. He has snow blown both east and west side sidewalks a couple of times this year. He is a man amongst men, and is single I might ad.

I've been calling/e-mailing Cappelman's office so they will send Streets and Sans out to give warnings/tickets to them. At least I hope it's happening. So many places along Hazel have NEVER shoveled in the 10 years I've lived here. A month ago a few of us helped an elderly woman in a wheel chair stuck in the street because the sidewalks were worse, forcing her into traffic. I also helped an older woman who fell and was bleeding and really hurt on someone's sidewalk but she refused to let us call 911 because she didn't have insurance. It's pathetic that home/condo/apt owners are not shoveling and that the city isn't aggressively ticketing them. It's the law. The city needs revenue. Period. If I decided to ignore speed cameras or parking meters I'd still be ticketed and have to pay for it. Why are people not being ticketed for this? It's not only public safety but it's your responsibility. If you can't do it/afford it then hire someone else or sell.

If you are a condo owner, your association needs to have someone cleaning sidewalks around your building. I've noticed that single-family homes tend to clear sidewalks better than multi-unit buildings.Rachelhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15462820763024670287noreply@blogger.com
