Village Streets
Overview
The Village maintains local streets and sidewalks to keep them safe and accessible. Otsego County maintains County Routes that pass through the Village, and the State maintains State Route 51.
Snow & Ice
During the winter months, residents should avoid parking on streets overnight so plows can clear the roads and sidewalks. Please shovel or clear around mailboxes and driveways after plows pass.
Sidewalks
Sidewalk upkeep is a shared responsibility. The Village repairs and replaces sidewalks as budgets allow, and is responsible for keeping them clear of snow and ice. However, proroperty owners are asked to keep sidewalks adjacent to their property clear of overgrowth.
Streetlights
The Village contracts with NYSEG for street lighting. If you notice a streetlight out or malfunctioning, you can submit it directly to NYSEG using their online form. Please include the nearest address or pole number if available.
Streets & Sidewalks
To help our Department of Public Works plow and treat roads safely, on-street parking is not permitted on Village streets during the winter season.
Dates
November 1 through April 1
Why this matters
Parked vehicles prevent plows from clearing curb-to-curb, can leave icy sections behind, and can delay emergency access.
Please do
Use off-street parking whenever possible and keep travel lanes and intersections clear during snow events.
