Road conditions may still be dangerous. The Borough of Netcong would also like to remind its residents of the following line of code: "The owner or tenant of lands abutting or bordering upon the sidewalks of public streets or public places in the Borough shall remove all snow and ice from the sidewalks abutting or bordering their property, edge to edge, within 24 hours after the same shall be formed or fallen thereon. Sidewalks are to be cleared in such a manner so as to leave any access to a crosswalk adjacent to the sidewalk also clear and fully accessible." Stay Warm and Stay Safe.
