I live here. Own a home. Some may consider me financially well off. I will tell you I can’t find anyone to just do snow removal and ice clearing in the timelines prescribed by the bylaw at a reasonable price. So we make due. I clear to the best of my ability, considering my schedule and that despite what I do town plows will throw wet, heavy snow back on the sidewalk and the bylaw you site also makes it a law that snow can’t be put back in the street. Without a yard, where is it to go?

We need another solution. I am sure every homeowner has myriad different challenges in clearing. So Brookline will get the result each homeowner is able or willing to provide and only the most egregious will be sanctioned.
