ICYMI: What Are Weston's Snow Removal Rules?

WESTON, MA – In the wake of the first real snowfall of the season, the Town of Weston is reminding residents of its by-law prohibiting the depositing of snow onto or across any public way, including sidewalks or public property.

The by-law specifically addresses the issue of private contractors plowing snow from driveways into the public way, which causes unsafe road conditions that must be corrected by the Department of Public Works. The by-law will be strictly enforced and tickets will be issued to the snow removal contractor and may also be sent to the property owner, as well.

Under the same law, interference with the town's snow removal process is prohibited; the owner of any vehicle interfering will be liable for the additional costs incurred by the DPW.
