Snowy Sidewalks: Not Allowed

Vernon residents with sidewalks adjacent to their homes are being asked to do their part to shovel off those walkways.

The city has issued a news release, saying the clearing has to be done within 24 hours after the snow fall, or the city will get the job done at the owner’s expense.

Resident are asked to clear the full width to allow for passage of baby carriages, wheelchairs and walkers.

“If possible, please pile the snow on the boulevard or private property (not onto roadways) to allow for storage of street snow along the curb area.”
