If you don't shovel, city may bill you
CHAMPAIGN – Sidewalks in the downtown and campus areas must be shoveled by 6 a.m. Wednesday or property owners run the risk of the city doing it for them and then sending them a bill.
City Public Works Director Dennis Schmidt on Friday declared that the city's sidewalk snow and ice removal policy was in effect, after several inches of snow fell Friday. According to unofficial National Weather Service information, Champaign and Urbana received about 4.5 inches of snow by late Friday afternoon.
