Sidewalk Snow Removal

Saint Paul ordinance requires that property owners clear sidewalks within 24 hours after the end of snowfall. Shovel the sidewalks on all sides of your property, the full width of the sidewalk down to the bare pavement.  If you have corner property, clear curb cuts at corners and crosswalks to the street gutter. You are not required to clear snow ridges or piles left by the plows beyond the gutter – City crews sometimes return to do that, but if they can’t your neighbors would appreciate it if you could clear an opening to get through.

Leave a Door Hanger reminding your neighbors of the rules:
