Snow Removal
No parking is allowed on village streets when there is an accumulation of snow 1" or greater; the Public Works Department will dispatch their snow removal crew at this time.
Residents are prohibited from depositing snow in the streets, as this creates a safety hazard for motorists and inhibits snow removal efforts.
No trash containers are to be placed in the streets at any time, especially during winter weather.
