Per City Ordinance 5.04, an owner of a lot or parcel used for commercial purposes shall be responsible for clearing all snow and ice from the sidewalk prior to 24 hours elapsing since the snow ceased being deposited. All other occupants or owners of lots or parcels in the City of Wisconsin Dells must clear the abutting sidewalks prior to 48 hours elapsing since the snow has ceased being deposited. If the snow and/or ice is not removed in the required time frame, Department of Publics Works employees will do it at the rate of $105 an hour with a minimum of 1 hour being charged. Citations could also be issued for ongoing issues. A friendly reminder to recheck your sidewalks as plows can deposit snow back onto sidewalks.
