Winter 2011


















Effective December 1 there is no parking on village streets between 2
am—6 am. This law is in effect until April 1. Please remember to move
your car off the street so plows can get through and make the streets safe for drivers. Not complying may resultin a parking ticket.
Also, according to Village Code, all property owners in the Village are
responsible to clear sidewalks ofsnow and ice within 24 hours of the
end of snowfall. Please do not shovelthe snow from sidewalks on to public streets.
Keeping the streets and sidewalks clear during the winter months is
important not only for the safety ofdrivers but for people, young and old, that have to walk to school, the grocery store or just to get the paper.
Please be a conscientious neighborand do your part in maintaining your
sidewalk.
