Street Cleaning Enforcement Suspended Monday

Street cleaning enforcement has been suspended citywide for Monday due to the latest winter storm that's now only expected to produce a few inches in the area.

A winter weather advisory has been issued for Hoboken until noon Monday with 2 to 4 inches of snow expected. The storm, which was originally projected to dump more than a foot of snow in North Jersey, will now hit the southern half of the state the hardest.

Hoboken street cleaning enforcement will resume Tuesday. Hoboken officials in a Nixle alert released Sunday reminded residents to clear snow from sidewalks and adjacent to their properties within six hours after the storm ends.

"The city will continue to enforce these regulations and issue fines for failure to comply," according to the Nixle alert. "Residents are urged to assist elderly or disabled neighbors with clearing snow from their properties and are asked to 'adopt' a fire hydrant on their street and keep it clean and clear of snow. It is illegal to shovel snow back onto streets or onto fire hydrants."
