Winter is here!   In accordance with City of Sisters Ordinance 473, when snow reaches 4 or more inches in accumulation the streets become a No Parking Zone and all vehicles including trailers must be removed.  Signage has been installed throughout PMV to serve as a reminder of this ordinance.  Our HOA is responsible for plowing the PMV streets and alleys, so please remove vehicles/trailers from the streets, when snow is four or more inches in accumulation.  Vehicles/trailers not removed will be towed.

 

Many of our neighbors use our sidewalks to get to work, school or for recreational walking.  When a sidewalk has not been cleared of snow and/or ice, pedestrians may be forced to walk in the road.  This causes a dangerous situation for both the pedestrian and the vehicle driver.  City of Sisters code requires every property owner or occupant to maintain their adjacent sidewalk in good repair.  The property owner/occupant is responsible for snow shoveling/de-icing their adjacent sidewalk within 6 hours of daylight following a snow or ice event.  This includes sidewalks adjacent to empty lots.  The City asks everyone to refrain from using ice melt or similar products due to the sidewalk damage those products can cause to the sidewalks  Instead, the City suggests the use of bird seed or sand as an alternative method to keeping sidewalks safe.
