The landowner of any property abutting any street,
highway or road in the Town and the occupant of any premises where
a sidewalk or pedestrian walkway has been installed are required to
keep the sidewalk bordering the property or premises free and clear
of snow, ice, dirt or other obstructions within 24 hours after an
obstruction is created. In the event that the obstruction cannot be
removed without damaging the sidewalk, the use of salt and/or ashes
is permitted to the extent otherwise permitted by law.
If any landowner or occupant fails to keep his property or premises free and clear of snow, ice, dirt or any other obstruction as set forth in §
430-15 above within 24 hours, the Town may perform removal and bill the costs to the landowner. Any work performed pursuant to this section shall be a lien upon the property until paid.
