Notice

 

This is a reminder to all citizens within the corporate limits regarding removal of snow and ice.  The Town has a number of elderly and young residents and tourists who may be open to injury if the snow removal policy is not followed.  It should be noted that the Town Ordinance Section 11-407 “Prohibited accumulation of snow, ice and debris on sidewalks and removal thereof by Town at expense of property owners” will be actively enforced for the benefit of all.
