Property owners are required by law to clean the sidewalks and 18 inches into the street outside their properties. This is an ESSENTIAL part of keeping New York City clean, but these Sidewalk Slobs didn't do their part. The Department of Sanitation writes summonses to Sidewalk Slobs every day, but they can't do it alone.
Fines for repeat offenders are higher than ever – up to $500 for the worst of the worst.
Report a Sidewalk Slob near you, and they just may end up in the Hall of Shame below.
We'll do our part to hold them accountable, because cleanliness is a shared responsibility.
