From the town website:

The Commission on Disabilities and Bylaw Committee are hosting a joint public forum to discuss a proposed snow shoveling bylaw that will be considered by Town Meeting in November.

The forum will provide an opportunity for residents, business owners, and others in the community to:

• Learn more about the proposed bylaw and why it is being considered

• Understand how the proposed requirements would apply to properties abutting sidewalks

• Ask questions and learn more about the proposal

• Share feedback and comments with the Commission on Disabilities and Bylaw Committee

The proposal is still under consideration, and feedback from the community will help inform the ongoing review.

View the draft text of the proposed bylaw.
