Snow is not to be plowed into or across streets; pushed against curbs; blown or deposited into streets. This is a traffic hazard, blocks hydrants and mailboxes, and slows down the Public Works Department's efforts to clear the streets. As was the case last winter, DPW employees are reporting people swearing at them for plowing driveways shut. The laws of physics can't be broken: it's impossible to push snow along a curb and not have it pile up along a driveway opening! It doesn't accomplish anything to yell obscenities, and it constitutes Disorderly Conduct. PLEASE be careful when moving snow around and give our village employees, and your neighbors, a break.
