Condo building drain can cause water hazard in the winter

Our condo drain spout drains roof water directly onto the driveway leading directly to our garage door. This is a within the area getting into and out of our car or for guest to embark. The water pools and freezes. It is such a safety hazard just inviting falls on the ice. Checked with the county and city and they said they do not look at safety issues when building permits are issued regarding water downspout disbursement. Only require builder to install so water is dispersed 3 feet away from foundation. Who is responsible for the safety issue on the condo. I feel it is the association since they know that it is a common issue for many of the same condo floor plan. Does anyone have the same issue and how to solve.
