Grove City Codified Ordinance 901.01 requires abutting property owners to clear snow and ice from sidewalks within 24 hours after snowfall ends.
Per GCCO 901.01, owners and occupants of property abutting a public sidewalk must remove snow and ice within 24 hours after the snowfall has ceased. The city does not perform residential sidewalk clearing. Commercial frontages along Broadway, Stringtown Road, and Columbus Street receive heightened scrutiny. Failure to clear creates pedestrian liability and permits the city to clear and bill the owner under ORC 723.011. Salt and sand use is permitted; chemical de-icers harmful to concrete are discouraged.
$50 minor misdemeanor citation under GCCO 901.99. Civil liability to injured pedestrians under Ohio premises law.
