real snow of the year has been with

there seems to be a mistaken idea

itself is duty bound to clear the side
walks of ice and snow, but there is
where they are mistaken, for there
is an ordinance on the subject that
expressly makes it the duty of the
property owner or occupier to do this

The daily telegram. [volume] (Clarksburg, W. Va.) 1901-1926, 1905-12-19

work. and the ordinance Is perfeetly
proper, as the city itself ought not
10 bear the burden. For the benefit
of the many who are not familiar
with the ordinance the Telegram
here reproduces it ms follows:
son and after the first day OF
January. 1899, it shall be the duty
of every person owning or occupying
property in the city, which IS Dor
.dcred lYy a sidewalk to have 50 much
of the said sidewalk as borders on
his premises cleaned of all snow or
ice within twenty-four hours after
the cessation of every snowfall; anu
if the said owner or Occupier shan
fail to so remove the said snow or
ice. it shall be the duty OF the
-unerintendent of streets, after CIV
inc said owner or occupier, three
hours notice, to cause the same TO
he removed mt the expense Of the
CITY: and all sums so expended by
the said superintendent OF streets
NAV be recovered from the persons
so in default by an action brought
on behalf of the city before the
mayor"
The ordinance is not aimed at
prosecution or persecution, but seeks
only to have condition that Is :
beneficial to all. and it is the hope OF
the Telegram that there may never
he occasion to enforce it. 1t IS
certainly no hardship to keep the
sidewalks passable, especially, IN the
thicklv inhabited sections OF the CITY.
and in the remote parts no one
fnct that there is but slight use of
them and no special inconvenience
results from negligence to clean
In a spirit of fairness and right
moi only 10 ones self but also to
ones neighbor, it is hoped that an
effort will be made by all in the
business and resident portion of the
city to obey the ordinance.
