    Default Is It Apartment Complex's Duty to Keep Roads and Sidewalks Clear of Snow and Ice

    State TN

    Long story short....

    We got artic blast cold air snow and ice. Everybody knew about this 4 days ahead of time..


    I live in nice apartment complex... Driving into gated complex i turned the corner going to my apt. Slid off road into gate and damage mirror and fender and did alot of damage to fence. A neighbor help pull my car out...


    When i get home I tell my wife who said she just called the apartment complex office 20 mins before I walked and advised them of icy roads and sidewalks as she slipped when walking the dog. Apartments lady said there is nothing she can do about nature and hung up quickly....

    I walk to office and this was a new employee at the office. Never seen her before..She says to call the manager, and she stated manager wont be in tommorow. I told her something needs to be done about roads sidewalks now...Our walkways get salted shortly after somehow, but not the roads

    questions is.. is it apartment complex duty to keep there community roads free of ice/snow? Who is liable for the damage to my car

    In general? Yes. In any way that will help you with the car damage? It appears not. See Elrod v Continental Apartments, a recent case addressing very similar facts.
