Advisory

SNOW EMERGENCY is in Effect: 2/18/21 08:00 AM through 2/19/21 10:00 AM

Snow Emergency is in Effect:

Millcreek Township has officially declared a Snow Emergency for Thursday 2/18/2021 starting at 08:00 AM and lasting until Friday 2/19/2021 at 10:00 AM. Plan now to have your vehicles off all Snow Emergency Routes. All of Newburg Village is considered a Snow Emergency Route. Other Snow Emergency routes include East and West Main St., South Sheridan Rd., Memorial Blvd. and parts of Parish Ave.

Note: It is safer for the Plow Drivers to not have vehicles parked on the streets. If you have a vehicle that does not start, now is the time to have it towed or otherwise removed from the roadway. Vehicles parked on the streets are subject to parking tickets.

Next, if you are unable to remove snow from your sidewalks, now is the time to make arrangements with someone who is capable of removing the snow for you. There are several local snow removal services that may be interested in your business.

Note, Township Ordinance requires owners of properties to have sidewalks cleared no later than 24 hours after the end of the storm. The pathway shall be no less than 30 inches wide. Also, no snow from driveways or sidewalks shall be placed on streets or roadways.

Next, during the winter weather please be patient with our plow truck drivers. They will do the best they can to keep roads passable. After the storm they will work hard to clear the snow.

Finally, please help your neighbors and check in on elderly neighbors. If you can help them with their snow removal, I am sure they would appreciate your help.
