To reduce the impact of snow and meltwater on pedestrian travel and
safety, on nearby water bodies, and on stormwater systems.
REQUIREMENTS
Establish a comprehensive snow management plan including snow removal
from streets, sidewalks, and bicycle lanes, snow storage, and meltwater
management to prevent contamination of ground or surface water or
flooding. Avoid use of chemicals or salts as melting agents.

Ensure removal of snow and ice from sidewalks and similar pedestrian
areas in a timely manner to facilitate walking and prevent injury. Add
language to commercial leases and/or CC&R’s which
require timely and appropriate removal methods.

pedestrian use.
