While the Toronto City has active snow removing services throughout snow fall season, residents have the responsibility to clear snow on their properties.
“If you live in the downtown where sidewalks cannot be plowed, residents and business owners are responsible for clearing the ice and snow from sidewalks adjacent to their properties within 12 hours of a snowfall.”
Failure to clear snow off your property within the 12 hours could result in a fine of $100.00 plus $25.00 surcharge, total $125.00 as per Municipal Code Chapter 719.
