[HISTORY: Adopted by the Mayor and Council
of the Borough of Oradell 3-20-1961 as Art. IV, Division 1, of Ch. 17 of the 1961 Revised Ordinances.
Amendments noted where applicable.]
Every owner or tenant of any lands abutting
upon the public streets within the Borough shall remove all snow and
ice from the abutting sidewalks of such streets within 12 hours of
daylight after the same shall have fallen or have formed thereon.
In addition to any penalty that may be imposed for failure to remove snow and ice from the abutting sidewalks of any public street, as required in § 224-1, such snow and ice may be removed from the abutting sidewalks of such public streets, wherein the owners or tenants have failed to remove the same, by the Department of Public Works. The cost of removal of any such snow and ice from the sidewalks of any public street shall be certified to the Borough Council by the officer in charge of such removal. The Borough Council shall examine such certificate and, if the charges are found to be correct, shall cause such cost to be charged against such real estate so abutting upon such sidewalks thereof, and the amount so charged shall thereupon become a lien or tax upon such real estate and be added to and be part of the taxes next to be levied and assessed thereon. Such charge shall be enforced and collected with interest by the Collector of Taxes of the Borough in the same manner as other taxes are collected.
