More details to this question:
In my contract, which I signed, it stated that as a courtesy to its residents, they would shovel our walkways. For the past 13 years, they have done this after every snow storm. Now they no longer do this.

c.186 Section 14 of the General Laws requires that if a landlord provides a particular amenity as part of a renting contract, the landlord cannot unilaterally remove or cease to provide that amenity. And courts will enforce this.
