STATE OF EMERGENCY

SATURDAY, FEB. 6, 2010:  Mayor O'Malley declares a state of emergency in Forest Hills due to the snowstorm.  

MONDAY, FEB 8, 2010:  The borough office will attempt to maintain normal office hours during the week but hours may be limited or the office closed by the storm anticipated to strike Tuesday and Wednesday. Remember:  Dial 911 for all emergencies.

Trash Collection - Snow Emergency

Waste Management is unable to collect trash on Monday, Feb. 8.  However, they will make an effort to collect your trash the remainder of the week with the understanding that a second snow storm is predicted to begin Tuesday, Feb. 9 and could impact their plans.  Also, our crew was only able to clear some streets to just passable condition.  This, too, could affect collections and the ability to access your property.  Waste Management has assured us that they will make every effort to collect trash this week but asks for your patience during this emergency.

Snow Removal - Snow Emergency

Residents are reminded that borough ordinance requires that you remove snow from sidewalks within several hours of the end of a storm.  We understand that this emergency creates a hardship for all and we ask that property owners do their best to clear a path so that pedestrians and school children are safe.  The borough offers this as a friendly reminder rather than an order considering the magnitude of the recent storm.  We ask all for patience in this emergency as it may take several days more than the minimally required time to comply.
