Property owners are responsible for clearing public sidewalks on or adjacent to their property within 24 hours of the end of a snowstorm (County Council Press Release, 4-23-2001, pdf format). All residents are strongly encouraged to be good neighbors by clearing the sidewalks in front of their homes, as well as assisting those who may not be physically able to do so. (County Code Section 49-24A) 

Please note: The Montgomery County Commission for People with Disabilities reminds residents that people who use walkers, wheelchairs, baby strollers, rolling briefcases, etc, need 36-inch wide sidewalks and curb ramps for safe travel, especially when the walks are slippery or wet.
