Carneys Point tables sidewalk snow‑and‑ice ordinance after questions about street placement
Summary
Ordinance 1084, intended to prevent snow being placed in roadways, was introduced and immediately tabled after committee questions about enforcement and snow placement.
The Carneys Point Committee introduced Ordinance 1084 to establish sidewalk snow and ice removal regulations and then tabled it after questions about where cleared snow should be placed.
Solicitor A. Telsey described the ordinance's intent: "this ordinance avoids putting the snow in the road. It should be put in the yard." Committee member Mr. Martin raised follow‑up questions about placement and enforcement; Dr. Johnson moved to table the ordinance and Mrs. Martin seconded. The motion to table passed with all in favor except Mr. Brown.
The committee did not adopt changes at the March 4 meeting; officials said they will revisit the ordinance language and enforcement clarity before bringing it back for consideration.
