1. Who will shovel the snow off my sidewalk?

It is the home owner's or renter's responsibility to clear the snow from their sidewalks. Local Code allows 24 hours after a storm to complete this task.

2. Why do I have to pay a sidewalk maintenance fee if I do not have a sidewalk in front of my house?

The sidewalk maintenance fee pays not only to maintain existing sidewalks but to install new sidewalks or connect existing walks that have large gaps between concrete sections. Each year Town staff and engineers prioritize existing walks in need of repair, and plan the most cost effective way to add sidewalks to the existing network of walks in Platteville. If your walk is deteriorating and in need of repair, please report that to Town Hall.
