Please do not rake fall leaves or shovel winter snow onto the street. The Public Works street sweeper cannot pick up fall leaves. Township snow plows cannot effectively clear the Township streets with residents putting their snow to the street.
Harrison Township ordinance: Chapter 21. Streets and Sidewalks – Part 4. Material on Streets and Sidewalks § 401. Depositing Snow, Leaves and Grass on Streets
“No person when removing snow, grass or leaves from private property shall be permitted to throw snow, grass or leaves into Township streets.”
Brown leaf bags should be used for leaves and Public Works will pick them up to compost.
Failure to comply with this ordinance can result in up to a $300 fine. Your compliance is appreciated.
