CITY OF WAUSAU SNOW AND ICE REMOVAL FROM SIDEWALKS It is the responsibility of property owners to keep the public sidewalk adjacent to their property clear of ice and snow. Sidewalks should be cleared within 24 hours of a snowfall. Property owners are also responsible for snow/ice removal from public corners which may abut their property. Furthermore, property owners are not to shovel, snow blow, or in any way deposit snow from their driveways or abutting sidewalk into any street or alley. Chapter 12.52 of the Wausau Municipal Code will be strictly enforced and reads as follows: 12.52.020 Placing snow on streets, alleys or boulevards. No person shall deposit, or cause to be deposited, snow upon any public street or alley. Snow removed from driveway approaches and public sidewalks may be deposited on the boulevard area. 12.52.030 City snow removal at expense of property owner. When a property owner or occupant refuses to obey an order of the employee assigned the duties and responsibilities of the sidewalk inspector regarding the removal of snow and/or ice as required by Section 66.0907(5) of the Wisconsin Statutes, the city may remove the snow and/or ice from the sidewalk abutting or adjacent to the property and charge the property owner for such removal. In the event the owner fails to pay such charges, they shall be added to the tax roll, and the charges will be collected as delinquent taxes are collected. Pursuant to Wisconsin Statutes 66.0907(5), the City may also impose a fine or penalty for neglecting to keep sidewalks clear of snow and ice.
