how to write snow removal by tenant in lease?

Hi, what is an example of how to write a detailed description of snow removal being the responsibility of the tenant in a triplex, duplex, single household? I have read that I would need to dictate when and where the snow needs to be shoveled and specify how soon after a snowfall a path needs to be cleared and how wide the path needs to be.

How would you write that on your lease? Thanks!

    @Vinh Nguyen Check your local government website or consult a real estate attorney - they may have a template available that you can use. Here is an example from my lease: "Tenant must keep grass trimmed and maintained; must remove leaves and debris; must promptly remove ice and snow from all walks, steps and drives; and must maintain grounds in good condition."
