How to read the Brantford rule during a storm

If the city provides public-sidewalk service, still check private walkways and parking restrictions; municipal service does not erase every property obligation.

Do not forget the flanking sidewalk on a corner property. Municipal rules can attach to all sidewalks bordering the parcel.

Snow-removal programs are time-sensitive. Verify the live municipal instructions when a storm or parking event is underway.
