* Contract a firm to handle snow removal from November through March.  We must clear the sidewalks; the club will violate city ordinances [https://library.municode.com/mi/livonia/codes/code_of_ordinances?nodeId=CO_TIT12STSIPUPL_CH12.04STSI_12.04.370SINOICRE 12.04.370] if they're not cleared appropriately.  Typically, the parking lot is not cleared (except for a small portion near the entrance).
