Winter Information & Facts No parking is permitted on any street in the Town between the hours of 12AM and 6AM from November 15th through April 1rst by order of the Town code. This is to assist with our ice and snow removal operations. Please check mailbox and post office periodically during the winter season. Our plows rarely hit the mailboxes, most damage is caused by the impact and weight of the snow being pushed up against weakened or older posts. Any damage caused to them must be reported to the Highway Dept. in a timely manner. Any berm or driveway which may have been damaged by the winter weather will be repaired in the springtime. You must call these repairs in to the Highway Dept. to be put on the spring repair/clean up list. Spring Information & Facts Grass and or leaves in biodegradable bags are picked up year round weather permitting. Spring clean up consists of road or berm repairs and pruning or trimming back of any town trees or brush which may be causing a hazardous condition to the drivers on the road.
