Portland Citywide Crime Wave Ignored By Authorities!

Portland property owners who failed to clear their sidewalks of snow and ice by Friday, February 16th are in violation of the law.

But the City will do nothing to enforce the law unless this violation is reported. To report un-shoveled sidewalks please call 874-8493 or 874 8693. Please have ready the street number address of the violator(s). (I'd suggest walking around your neighborhood with a notebook.)

Let's keep pedestrians and children off the streets and out of traffic, and give them their civic right to walk safely. More info at PPW website:
