How Residents and Property Owners Can Help
Assure the Safety and Efficiency of the
Town of Mamaroneck Snow
and Ice Control Operations
·
Stay off the roads as much as possible.
·
Do not park on Town of Mamaroneck streets
during snow or ice events. Vehicle owners may be called by the town Police
Department to remove vehicles which interfere with plow operations. Cars parked
during snow emergencies will be ticketed and towed. Be cognizant of Snow Emergency conditions when declared
by the Town.
·
Wear reflective clothing while walking on
roads during plowing operations.
·
Do not allow children to build and occupy
“snow forts” and similar snow creations within 10 feet of the edge of pavement.
·
Do not relocate snow from driveways and
sidewalks into the paved street. This is in violation of New York
State Highway law (Article 8, Section 214) and will cause a hazardous
condition on the street. Code Enforcement personnel will issue violations.
·
Shovel or plow an area to the right of your
driveway exit to accommodate plowed snow from the street. This will help lessen
build-up in your driveway apron when the town plows the road.
·
“Plowing in” driveways by Highway plows is inevitable
and unavoidable. Raising plows at every driveway and then immediately dropping
them after the driveway opening is not possible. Please schedule your private
snow removal after the storm.
·
Yield to Plow Trucks and give them space to
operate.
·
Cooperate with the Highway Department to
assure safe and efficient clearing of the roads.
·
Be patient, stay off the roads and let the
Highway Department provide you with safe winter travel.
