Please remove all cars from town streets tonight -and for the next three nights to allow for plowing of roads---even if you have received an exemption. Garbage/recycling pickup for tomorrow probably will be cancelled
snow advisory---cars off streets ......PROBABLE suspension of garbage, recycling pickup tomorrow
The snow storm that is predicted for later tonight and tomorrow is expected to be a big one. I just got off the phone with the Police Chief, Chris McNerney who advises that a snow emergency is being declared for the next three nights --Sunday to Monday, Monday to Tuesday and Tuesday to Wednesday. As a result, ALL CARS MUST BE OFF THE STREETS. Parking is prohibited at all metered parking spaces on E Hartsdale Ave and Columbia Ave between the overnight hours of 1 AM and 6 AM. Residents are reminded that limited parking will be available at the Webb Field parking lot on N Central Ave. Vehicles found parked in violation of the snow Emergency ordinance are subject to a fine of up to $500 and vehicles may be removed from the roadway. All residents that have been issued hardship overnight parking exemptions are also prohibited from parking their vehicles on any town road during the declared snow emergency. Those that do not remove their vehicles could have their exemptions removed.
I spoke with Rich Fon, Commissioner of Public Works who advises that sanitation recycling will probably be suspended tomorrow due to the anticipated snow storm. Our sanitation crews will assist highway with snow removal operations. A final decision will be made later today --but weather forecasts lead us to believe that the pickup will be canceled.
