Snow Removal Reminder
For our safety, the Town of
Windsor Fire Marshal’s Office, Windsor Police and Volunteer
Fire Companies would like to extend a reminder to residents
to remove any accumulated snow from their sidewalks and/or
fire hydrants adjacent to their property.
According
to the town ordinance, the owner of any premises adjoining
and fronting upon any public sidewalk or bike path should
clear a minimum of a 4-foot wide path within 12 hours
following a snowstorm. If a snowstorm occurs during the
night, the ordinance calls for the snow to be removed with
12 hours of sunrise.
If you have
questions, or would like further information, call 285-1971.
Town Hall Holiday Schedule
Town
offices will be closed Christmas Day, Tuesday, December 25th
and New Year’s Day, Tuesday January 1st. We will
be open during regular business hours (8:00 AM to 5:00 PM)

Winter
Parking Rules
Windsor residents are reminded that between the dates of November 15
and April 15 there is no parking on Windsor streets between
the hours of 1:00 AM and 6:00 AM. In addition, there is no
parking on any street during a snow or ice storm that has
been in progress for one or more hour. Residents are also
asked to not leave their vehicles on the street in such a
position that it impedes snowplowing operations or the free
flow of traffic. Following these simple winter guidelines
will make it a safer winter for all.
Holiday Toy Drive is a Success
Thanks to the generosity of 44 local businesses, civic
organizations and citizens, 119 Windsor families including
286 children benefited from this year’s Holiday Toy Drive.
Toys were collected at the Chamber of Commerce Holiday
Breakfast and at the Safety Complex, and food baskets were
donated by the Hoffman Car dealership.
Special thanks to United Trinity Methodist Church for
allowing us to use space at the church once again this year
and to Windsor Sanitation for providing a dumpster free of
charge for the event.
Lastly, this project would not be possible if not for the
volunteers who assist is assembling the boxes and sorting
the toys.
More Holiday Giving
In addition to the toy drive, Windsor Social Services
coordinated the distribution of 201 turkeys to Windsor
families. Approximately 70 families received gift cards
for local supermarkets for Thanksgiving and Christmas thanks
to the generosity of Windsor Community Service Council.
