Snow covered sidewalks in Oak Lawn

Just wondering if anyone else is as annoyed with the snow covered side walks in Oak Lawn, along 95th street and else where? I don't understand why businesses are not required to shovel their sidewalks along their business front? I have seen numerous people being forced out into 95th street to walk because the sidewalks are snow covered. I found it disturbing to see students trying to get to school walking in the street of both 95th and southwest hwy. Why are these business not required to clean the walk ways? On Sunday I noticed every car in the lot of Hawk Ford was clean from the snow, yet a couple trying to walk past the dealer as well as McDonald's had to walk in 95th street? Why don't we fine these businesses or property owners? Ya, hear that Oak Lawn another way to make money and maybe keep residences safe?
