Snow Removal Reminders for Residents

  • When it snows it is our goal is to clear all borough and state roads within 6 to 10 hours after snow has stopped falling. Please refrain from parking on the street if you have off-street parking available. This allows Public Services to clear more snow from the road.
  • Residents should clear their sidewalks after plowing has been completed. A three-foot-wide path on the sidewalk must be cleared on your property within 24 hours after the snow has stopped. Don’t forget your crosswalks, handicapped ramps, and alley crossing. The borough does not plow snow in alleys.
  • It is illegal to shovel, throw or plow snow from sidewalks onto street parking, driveways, allies and into the street or right-of way.
  • Dumping snow or ice on Borough property or plowing snow across a street is also prohibited.
