[Adopted 7-27-1982 as Sec. 3-13
of the 1981 Revised General Ordinances]
[Amended 10-28-2014 by Ord. No. 2323-2014]
A.
The owner or tenant of lands abutting or bordering
upon the sidewalks and gutters of the public streets within the borough
limits shall remove all ice and snow from the same within 12 hours
of daylight after the same shall fall or be formed thereon; and all
grass, weeds or growth of any kind or other impediments within three
days after notice to remove same.
B.
However, in the event that snow or ice on a sidewalk has become so hard that it cannot be removed without the likelihood of damage to the sidewalk, the person or entity charged with its removal shall, within the time mentioned in Subsection A hereof, cause enough sand or other abrasive to be put on the sidewalk to make travel thereon reasonably safe and shall then, as soon thereafter as weather permits, cause said sidewalk to be thoroughly cleaned.
[Added 11-26-1996 by Ord. No. 1652-96]
A.
No person, firm or corporation, owner, tenant or occupant
of any premises abutting on any street shall throw, place or deposit
any snow or ice into or upon any street in the Borough of Fair Lawn,
it being the intent and purpose of this provision to prohibit all
persons from throwing, casting, placing or depositing snow and ice,
which has accumulated within the private property belonging to said
person, upon the sidewalks or streets of the Borough of Fair Lawn.
In case of the removal of such ice and snow,
grass, weeds and other impediments by the borough, the cost and expense
incurred shall be charged against the lands abutting or bordering
upon the sidewalks and gutters from which removal is made, and with
interest thereon shall forthwith become a lien upon the lands and
shall be added to and form a part of the taxes next to be assessed
and levied, and shall be certified to the Collector, and shall be
collected in the same manner and at the same time as other taxes.
