Welcome to City of White Sulphur Springs White Sulphur Springs...A Great Place to Live!

In the City of White Sulphur Springs, we are defined less by boundaries on a map than by the sense of shared values our residents hold dear. Small town values, guided growth, preservation of historical, cultural, and natural heritage are just a few of the core principles that makes the City of White Sulphur Springs  a wonderful place to call home.

7.2.1 REMOVAL OF SNOW AND/OR ICE.

   (A)   It shall be the duty of the owner or tenant of any premises abutting or adjoining any public sidewalk to remove all snow and/or ice from such sidewalk. Thus, public sidewalks shall be cleared within 24 hours of any snowfall with accumulation of one-half inch or greater. Snow removal shall be limited to areas on the individual's property and not into the City right-of-way, the street, against the neighboring property, or blocking any drain or drainage area. Arrangements for the removal of accumulated snow so as to reduce icy areas and ensure proper drainage flow to and into a drain or drainage area shall be made for properties without any yard or storage area for snow.

   (B)   Removal of snow refers to shoveling, snow blowing, plowing, or otherwise displacing snow, ice or slush from private drives or public sidewalks by the owner or tenant, or any agent hired by the owner or tenant.

   (C)   No person shall deposit or cause to be deposited any accumulation of snow or ice on or against a fire hydrant or on any sidewalk, roadway, curb or gutter, any marked loading or unloading zone, or any property of the City which is used for the storing of snow off-street, or any area designated for use by emergency vehicles, such as fire lanes.

      (1)   A single-use exception may be granted for depositing snow on City property used for storing snow off-street upon making application to the Mayor and receiving written permission.

   (D)   No person shall obstruct the vision of motorists on the roadway or those entering the roadway by the removal of snow, ice or slush from a sidewalk or driveway, and the deposit of such snow, ice or slush at the end of a driveway, on the roadway, or along a curb creating a blockage of a drain or drainage area or impairing travel on the roadway or creating a hazard to the plow equipment.

   (E)   Owners or tenants of any premises who cannot make satisfactory arrangements to remove snow in compliance with this section may contact the City to arrange for snow removal, which shall be at the owner's or tenant's expense, subject to their ability to pay.

   (F)   No person shall deposit snow in a location which may, as the result of melting, create a hazard to properties neighboring and/or abutting the deposit location without the consent of the property owner to be affected.
