Snow and Ice Removal

Be a Good Neighbor

Being a walkable community is a big part of what makes the City of Bay Village a great place to live.  Please keep your sidewalk clear of snow for your neighbors and children walking to school or to the bus stop.  City Ordinance requires homeowners to clear snow and ice from their sidewalks within 24 hours. 

Why do they plow snow in front of my driveway?

Snow plow operators do not place snow in driveways on purpose.  There is no practical way for the snow plow operator to cut off the windrow of snow when crossing a driveway.  This problem is especially acute in cul-de-sacs because of the space.  One thing you can do to reduce the amount of snow that is plowed in front of your driveway is to place as much of the snow as possible to the right side of your drive as you face the street.
