Twice-Per-Day Cleaning Not Enough

LVT Number: 10891

DOS issued a violation notice to landlord for having a dirty sidewalk. Landlord claimed that the sidewalk was swept twice a day. The ALJ ruled against landlord and fined him $50. Landlord appealed. ECB again ruled against landlord. Landlord's claim that there was a severe litter problem in the area was no defense. Landlord was required to maintain a clean sidewalk. Sweeping twice a day in this case wasn't enough.
