Winter Weather Alert: Parking & Snow Removal

With a major snowstorm expected to hit this Sunday into Monday, we need your help to keep our roads safe and clear!

Please be mindful of Town Ordinance 164-9, which states:

No vehicle shall park on any road or right-of-way in a manner that hampers snow removal. Vehicles found in violation may be towed at the discretion of the Director of Public Works or any police officer. 

Snow Removal

§154-23. Snow removal. 

A. No person shall permit or allow snow removed from their driveway or parking lot to be plowed or placed onto or across any road in the Town at any time.

B. No person shall permit or allow snow removed from their driveway, parking lot or property to be plowed or placed or deposited onto any Town property, nor shall any snow removed be placed or deposited in any manner that would hinder access to any Town property.

Park Smart

To ensure our plows can clear the streets efficiently and emergency vehicles can pass through, please move all vehicles off the street and well away from the right-of-way before the snow begins.

A Note on Trash Cans

Please keep trash and recycling bins out of the travel lanes. Bins left in the street are a major hazard for plow drivers and can be easily damaged or tossed by heavy snow. Place them at the end of your driveway.

Let’s work together to get through this storm safely! Stay warm and stay off the roads if you can.
