During especially large and/or dangerous events, in the event the Mayor declares a “SNOW EMERGENCY”, this ban can be extended and the Mayor or Chief of Police can order the removal of all vehicles from any or all streets within the town to permit snow removal. This will enable the Public Services Department to properly and efficiently clear each street.

SIDEWALKS

All residents and businesses must clear sidewalks of snow within 24 hours following the end of the storm.
