Preparation for Inclement Weather

February 27, 2023

In preparation for tonight’s weather, here are a few tips and resources for guidance:

Snow Laws

Every owner, lessee, tenant, occupant, or other person having charge of any lot or building must clean snow and/or ice from the sidewalk after the snow has stopped falling. Snow may NOT be thrown into the street.

If the snow stops falling between:

  • 7:00 am and 4:59 pm: must be cleared within four hours;
  • 5:00 pm and 8:59 pm: must be cleared within fourteen hours;

Open Restaurant Program

Restaurants with dining structures are required to prepare their structures for snow:

  • Use snow sticks to increase visibility
  • Be prepared to consolidate and remove items when a winter operations advisory or snow alert is issued
