|
January 9, 2018 |
The City of Troy, due to the recent snow, is
reminding everyone who has a sidewalk in front
of their home to help keep it shoveled.
"We really need to keep the sidewalks clear of
snow for everyone who uses them especially the
children who walk to and from the schools
causing the children to walk in the roadway,"
said Mayor Dallas Carr. "This has been brought
up to me and is really a safety issue. Also, if
you are willing and know someone, or your
neighbor, who is unable to clear their sidewalk,
please assist them in clearing their sidewalks
too. Thank you so much for taking your time and
making the sidewalks safer for everyone."
Per Troy City Code 7-3-4: "It shall be the duty
of any occupant of any premises within the city
limits or in case the premises is unoccupied
then the owner or his agent, to keep the
sidewalk in front of or adjoining his premises
clean and safe for pedestrians, and to repair
the sidewalk from time to time, and the
occupant, owner or agent shall, with reasonable
dispatch, remove snow, ice, slush or mud or
other impediments to safe and convenient foot
travel." |
