Hold on and pretend it's a plan

The city has a newish (or newly enforced, I'm not sure which) ordinance requiring residents to clear sidewalks within 48 hours of snow. We've been getting more snow this season than we've gotten in years, so the fines for not shoveling have been getting a lot of attention. I'm a little mad at how many people are acting like the ordinance is stupid and how no one should really care about it.

( so what if the sidewalks are impassable? )
