[Avodah] SNOW REMOVAL CONTRACTS: WHAT ABOUT SHABBOS?

[Prof. Levine via Avodah]

 From http://tinyurl.com/gp2ukua

QUESTION: A snow removal contract is an agreement, either verbal or 
written, to plow a driveway, parking lot, etc., whenever a specified 
amount of snows accumulates. Is it permitted to enter into such a 
contract which, in effect, asks a non-Jew to perform a forbidden 
Labor on Shabbos?

ANSWER: It is difficult to give a definitive answer to this question. 
Let us rather explain the pros and cons so that the reader will be 
able to present his individual case to a rav for a final ruling.
