PLOWING OPERATIONS
Public Works is fully staffed and plowing operations are underway. All cars should be off the roads in accordance with Public Ordinance 2070, which prohibits parking on any street in Westfield when three or more inches of snow have fallen until snowfall stops and the entire width of the road has been plowed. The Westfield Police Department will issue tickets for violations of this ordinance.
