It’s that most wonderful time of the year when the weather is cold and fresh snow changes the scenery in Berkley. Berkley is very fortunate to have walkable communities. Residents, especially children and seniors, can walk to school and City parks. Home owners show pride and respect for neighbors and the community when they shovel the sidewalks abutting private property. For the safety of Berkley residents and visitors, business owners receive a letter every fall reminding them that they must provide for snow removal as defined in Section 106-222 of the Berkley City Code. In addition, Section 106-221 requires Oxford Park Towers and all business property to be cleared of snow. If snow is not removed in the manner defined in the ordinance, the City can clear the sidewalks and bill property owners for the work. Business owners should contact the Department of Public Works at 248.658.3320 if there are questions or concerns regarding this process. Limited funding and assistance is available from the City to help eligible seniors with chores around the house like shoveling snow. Low to moderate income seniors may qualify for this program. For details, contact the Parks & Recreation Department at 248.658.3470. |
Special Notices
Update: Water Main Break on Kipling near Oxford - 2/26/2015
The water main on Kipling near Oxford has been repaired and water service has been restored in the affected area.
During the repair process, iron sediments may have been released from the sides of the water mains causing a brownish color in the water. If you experience brown water, let the cold water run from a faucet closest to the inside water meter until the water is clear.
If you inadvertently use brown water for washing light and/or white clothing, you will need to rewash your laundry with a product called “Iron Out”, available at most hardware stores. Bleach will not remove the iron spots.
If you have questions, please call the DPW at 248-658-3490 between the hours of 7am and 3:30pm. If you have a water emergency after business hours, please call the Public Safety Department at 248-658-3380.
