Broward County, located in South Florida with a subtropical climate, does not receive snow or ice, so no snow removal ordinance exists. However, property owners remain responsible under county Code Chapter 39 and municipal property maintenance codes for keeping adjacent sidewalks clear of vegetation overhang below 8 feet, fallen palm fronds, debris, and storm damage. Following hurricanes and tropical storms, property owners must remove vegetative debris to designated curbside collection areas within 7-14 days of county-issued storm debris collection notices. Sidewalks must maintain the required minimum 4-foot clear pedestrian path at all times. Code enforcement issues violations for uncleared obstructions after 7-10 day courtesy notice periods, with fines of $50-250.
