In order to allow crews to clear streets after a snowfall, there is to be no parking on snow-covered streets 12 hours after a snow event. Snow emergency parking is available at the Train Station parking lot, behind the Firehouse, or at the Masonic Hall. Sidewalks should be cleared three feet wide, or the width of the sidewalk, whichever is less. Do not throw snow back into the street. When shoveling your driveway, place the snow on the RIGHT side of the driveway. This reduces the amount of snow the plows push back into the driveway when cleaning up after a snow event. All portable basketball hoops should be removed from the side of the road before each forecasted snow event. At minimum, the hoop should be turned away from the street. Following is the Borough's ordinance pertaining to snow removal: 3-5 Removal of Snow or Ice. 3-5.1 Snow or Ice. Owners, occupants ot tenants of any property fronting on any street in the borough shall remove all snow and ice from the abutting sidewalks of such street to the curb or pavement edge or, in the event of ice which may be so frozen as to make removal impraticable, shall cause the same to be thoroughly covered with sand, ashes or other material to provide traction, within 12 hours of daylight after the snow has falled or the ice has formed. Sidewalks shall be cleared to a width of three feet or the entire width of the sidewalk, whichever is less. No owner, occupant or tenant of any premises abutting on any street or sidewalk shall throw, place or deposit any snow or ice accumulated on private property into or upon any such street or sidewalk in the borough.
