- Injury Costs: Average slip-and-fall settlements for area restaurants are $36,000, but can reach $100,000 with legal fees (Lucas County claims, 2023).
- Employee Absenteeism: Westgate restaurant owners report that 1 in 4 winter staff call-offs are due to unsafe lots or sidewalks.
- Delivery Delays: Over half of Adams Street’s cafes and eateries report late or missed vendor deliveries on unplowed days—costing $1,500–$4,500 in lost product or rushed orders per storm (Greater Toledo Food Alliance).
- Reputation Impact: 72% of surveyed Toledo diners say a snowy or icy entrance is enough to make them skip a meal or post a negative review—risking long-term loyalty (2025 Toledo Diner Poll).
