The City of Greater Sudbury reminds citizens to store snow on their own properties, when shoveling or plowing private sidewalks and driveways.
Under municipal by-law 2011-219, it is not permitted to push snow onto banks or properties on the opposite side of the road. Accumulated snow from private plowing can interfere with sightlines and results in buildup of icy sections on the road. Throwing snow directly onto public sidewalks and roads is strictly prohibited. Citizens found in contravention of the by-law may face fines of $260.
