Oneonta snowfall rules

Staff Report

ONEONTA _ The city of Oneonta is reminding residents and visitors of the following rules that are in effect for the winter months:

- Vehicles must not be left parked on any city street during a snowstorm or after a snowfall of 2? inches or more. Residents must wait until the Department of Public Works has cleared the streets of snow before parking on the streets.

- Vehicles left on the street after a 2?-inch snowfall may be towed and/or ticketed. The cost of towing will be billed to the vehicle owner.

- Residential and commercial building owners must remove snow and ice from the full width of their sidewalks before 9 a.m., even after a light snowfall.

- If the ice cannot be removed without sidewalk damage, it must then be covered with sand or some other gritty material, not salt.

- Shoveling or plowing snow into the streets is prohibited, and snow should not be put on neighboring property without permission from the owner.

- Sidewalks not cleared by owners will be cleared by contractors hired by the city. The city’s cost plus 50 percent will be billed to the property owner.

The city of Oneonta on Tuesday suspended restrictions in city parking lots and the municipal parking garage in anticipation of the storm today.

The suspension of restrictions is designed to allow city residents to safely park their vehicles in anticipation of the upcoming snow emergency, during which parking will not be permitted on city streets, according to a media release.

Anyone with questions about winter parking may call the Department of Public Works at 432-2100. People with questions about sidewalk snowremoval requirements should call the city Code Enforcement Office at 433-3435.
