A Reminder On Phoenixville's Snow Ordinance

PHOENIXVILLE, PA -- Now that the snowfall is well underway, it’s important to remind yourself of the borough’s ordinance for snow removal. 

• Snow Removal - Sidewalks must be cleared of snow and ice within 24 hours of the last snow fall or ice form. For everyone’s sake, please take care of each other. If you are able-bodied, please offer your help to your neighbors. If you are not, please ask for help from your neighbors, neighborhood kids, friends, relatives, etc. Snow removal is required, enforced, a good practice and last, but not least, the neighborly thing to do for all those people who use the pedestrian sidewalks frequently!
  
  
• Parking Spaces – For properties that only have on-street parking, please remember, the streets of Phoenixville are open to all the public, in any location. Clearing a spot does not legally give any one person the right to “reserve” that spot with the various forms of reservation methods seen in the past, typically lawn chairs, tables, buckets, trash cans, and other various household items. Any items found in the streets are regarded as refuse, and will be disposed of each and every time it is witnessed by the Codes Department personnel.
