This is sassafras apartments, particularly in front of apts 39, 40, and 41.
I forgot to mention in my original report, #200064, that I called management yesterday about this ongoing issue, and it’s yet to be taken care of. This is sassafras apartments, particularly in front of apts 39, 40, and 41.
Sidewalks in front of Sassafras Hill apartments is completely covered in snow and impossible to navigate.
Multiple sidewalks blocked and impassable with snow
On North Walnut Street between 10th Street and 17th streets on both sides of the road, there are several properties with sidewalks still covered with ice and snow, in apparent violation of the city's ordinance on sidewalk snow removal (BMC 6.07.010). The icy goat trails that are worn into the snow are a testament to the practical need for these sidewalks as a way to get from Point A to Point B. As the photo illustrates, some people opt to just walk in the road, instead of trying to navigate the icy goat trails. As the photo also shows, some property owners have been able to achieve clear and dry sidewalks. I would therefore request that this stretch of roadway be reviewed by HAND enforcement staff and that the available punishments under the law be applied to these properties.
Azalea sidewalk along Winslow Woods never got cleared and Parks and Rec refuses to do so causing South students and residents to walk on the narrow road.
IU students are walking in the road on Woodlawn. I saw then between 1st and Maxwell. The sidewalks need cleared, including at the intersections. Also, ticket cars parking more than the maximum distance from the curb because they are obstructing traffic by sticking out in the road, making the pedestrian situation worse. (Also repeat this complaint on 1st Street, 2nd Street, etc all over town)

Sidewalk still hasn't been shoveled 2 weeks after the snow. This is a street with fairly high pedestrian and car traffic.
