Residents endangered by no snow law


Are some Woodstock residents endangered by the lack of a law in Woodstock to require residents and merchants to shovel snow from their sidewalks? Or to prohibit snowplow operators from doing this? --->>>>

Will the City come down on snowplow operators who pile up snow and block sidewalks?

Just after noon today this resident was making his way to 3 Brothers Restaurant. He operated his motorized wheelchair from Walden Oaks up Kimball to Lake Avenue and then southeastward toward the restaurant.

This photo was taken from the parking lot in front of Napoli's Pizza and Bob's Woodstock Motel. You can clearly see the sidewalk disappearing under the snow pile.

Is it going to take a serious-injury or fatal accident to get the attention of the City Fathers regarding blocked sidewalks?
