REMINDER: Snow and Ice Removal/Snow Emergency Parking

SNOW AND ICE REMOVAL:  With winter fast approaching, it is important to keep your sidewalk clear of snow and ice. Please note that the Local Law regarding snow and ice removal has been updated and can be read in its entirety by entering LOCAL LAW 5 OF 2022 in the searchbar.

SNOW EMERGENCY STREETS:  The Mayor is authorized to declare a Snow Emergency when necessary in order to permit snow plowing and snow removal.  During a Snow Emergency, parking on either side of the designated streets is prohibited and vehicles may be towed.  For the purpose of snow plowing and removal on all NON-“Snow Emergency Streets”, the village may post temporary snow removal signs and we ask that any vehicles parked there be removed within 24 hours.

The following streets are designated as “Snow Emergency Streets”:

Austerlitz Street, Cemetery Hill, High St, Kinderhook Street, Library Place, Maiden Lane, Woodbridge Avenue (from Hoffman Street to Church Street)

DPW

Autumn collection of leaves by the DPW, using vacuum machinery, begins each year in October and continues until December, weather permitting.  Please remember LEAVES ONLY.  Sticks, stones, pet waste, pet litter, and any other debris will damage the machine and/or result in serious injury.  Piles containing anything other than leaves will NOT be collected.  
Springtime collection of yard debris by the DPW begins in April.   For collection, you may place biodegradable bags for LEAVES ONLY, and properly sized, and bundled sticks and branches at the curb.
Year-round, properly sized/packaged Yard Debris such as downed limbs, brush, and clippings may be disposed of at the DPW garage on Brookside Avenue between 8:00am and 2:00pm, Monday through Friday.
Properly sized and/or packaged = Please use biodegradable bags for leaves ONLY. NO sticks, rocks, twigs or anything but leaves in the bags please.  Branches should be tied in bundles and should be cut as follows:   If they are more than 2″ diameter cut them to no more than 2-feet long. If they are less than 2″ diameter they can be up to 4-feet long.  
The collected yard waste does not get chipped by the Village DPW for repurposing in the Village.  The pile has gotten out of control in the last year or two. Village residents may bring debris, but please try to keep in mind that the intention is for managing fallen sticks and branches rather than for large quantities of tree trunks and large debris.

Clerk Office Hours

The Tracy building is open Monday-Friday for access to other offices-the Building Inspector/Codes Enforcement Officer, Treasurer, Town Court, and Police Department.
