Residents, business owners, property owners and renters are reminded to clear their sidewalks and ensure that fire hydrants are clear and clean of snow and ice within six hours after every snowfall, which ends in the daytime, and before 12:00 pm of the day after any snowfall, which occurs during the night. The best advice for driving in bad winter weather is not to drive at all; otherwise don't go out until the snow plows and sanding trucks have had a chance to do their work, and allow yourself extra time to reach your destination. Protect your water meter from icy drafts and freezing temperatures. Most frozen meters are caused by drafts from an open basement door or window so double check your property for drafts as the cold weather sets in In addition, the Yonkers Police Department has issued the following safety tips: Have flashlights, a battery-operated radio or television and fresh batteries handy If you must use candles, please be careful and keep them far away from children and flammable materials Store adequate supplies of non-perishable food that need not be refrigerated If you use an alternate-heating source, such as a fireplace, wood stove or kerosene heater, be sure to provide adequate ventilation. Otherwise, carbon monoxide poisoning could occur Shut doors to unused rooms and close the drapes to retain heat Check on your neighbors, especially if they are elderly and live alone If you require assistance or for more information, residents are also are encouraged to: Call the Mayor’s 24-hour Hotline at 377-HELP (4357) Visit the City’s Facebook page at facebook.com/CityofYonkers Visit the City’s Twitter at @CityofYonkers for updates on cancellations Other important numbers include: Con Ed Emergency at 1-800-752-6633 Yonkers Police Non-emergency at 914-377-7900
