In light of the National Weather Service in Grand Rapids forecasting a potential 12 or more inches of snow by Wednesday, students who live off campus and other city residents should be mindful of city ordinances regulating snow and ice removal.
Sidewalks are expected to be cleared within 24 hours of heavy snowfall, according to the city of East Lansing’s website. Similarly, sidewalks should be salted within 12 hours of ice formation.
Residents might be fined $85 for noncompliance.
