The legal boundary of my property is 5' back from the public sidewalk. The city owns the street, sidewalk and curbing. Homeowners are also instructed to clear any snow that the snowplow pushes up to the driveway. I have lived in my house for 40 years and the City of Shoreline has never plowed my street but I am instructed by this same city that I am responsible to clean the city sidewalk....... some interesting thinking here....... wories me that these officials are making decisions with my property tax money.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5741412946805763929.post-70896059004599155092020-01-14T17:54:27.243-08:002020-01-14T17:54:27.243-08:00Since when and who decided to impose on home owner...Since when and who decided to impose on home owners the job the city should be doing? You make us pay higher tax for the sidewalk and then impose on us the maintenance of that piece of CITY owned right of way? What kind of fascist garbage is this? There needs to be a class action lawsuit filed against you. Where was the vote by the people that allowed this? Who gave you the right to impose this rule?

Is someone going to be coming around to help them as required by ADA law? Remember some people in wheelchairs CAN'T shovel their sidewalks because if they do their wheelchair gets stuck..so are you going to have extra Fire and Police on duty to help those in wheelchairs free themselves if they get stuck in the snow from shoveling their sidewalk or are we going to get punished because we are disabled and can't shovel our driveways and sidewalks? Remember...WE ARE NOT UN-CARING SEATTLE!
