What's your opinion on Eden Prairie's proposed snow removal ordinance?
Here are some facts about the proposal:
* If approved, home owners will be responsible for clearing ice and snow from adjoining sidewalks and trails within 24 hours
* Commercial property owners (including apartments) would be required to move snow within four hours of daytime after a snowfall.
* If snow is not removed, the city would give owners 24 hours notice to remove it. The city would then remove the snow and charge owners for the expense.
* The city will continue to remove snow and ice from main feeder roads such as Anderson Lakes Parkway, Mitchell Road and Pioneer Trail
At the Oct. 2 City Council workshop and meeting, staff will present a first reading of this ordinance. The workshop is at 5 p.m. and the meeting starts at 7 p.m. at Eden Prairie City Center, 8080 Mitchell Road.
