Written By: Robert Cox

MAMARONECK, NY (January 26, 2026) — The Village of Mamaroneck’s Snow Emergency remains in effect Monday and Tuesday as the Department of Public Works continues plowing, treating roads and hauling snow following a significant storm.

A Declaration of a Local State of Emergency, issued by the Village effective 1:00 p.m. on January 23, 2026, also remains active to support ongoing cleanup operations.

Parking is prohibited on designated Snow Emergency Streets to allow DPW crews to work safely and efficiently. The restricted streets include:

  • Boston Post Road (US Route 1), both sides (Rye border to Mamaroneck Ave, and Mamaroneck Ave to Rockland Ave)
  • Fenimore Rd, both sides (Town of Mamaroneck border to Palmer Ave)
  • Halstead Ave, both sides (Town of Harrison border to Mamaroneck Ave)
  • Mamaroneck Ave, both sides (Boston Post Rd to I-95 overpass)
  • North Barry Ave, west side (First St to East Boston Post Rd)
  • Palmer Ave, both sides (Town of Mamaroneck border to Mamaroneck Ave)
  • Top of the Ridge, south side (driveway entrance at 25 Top of the Ridge to 60 ft NE along west cul de sac)
  • Top of the Ridge, north side (80 ft NE of driveway entrance at 61 Top of the Ridge to 80 ft NE along east cul de sac)

Vehicles displaced by the restrictions may park in any Village overnight parking lot without a permit for the duration of the restriction. Vehicles are not permitted to park overnight in Harbor Island Park.

Overnight snow removal and hauling operations are scheduled Monday, January 26, 2026, through Tuesday, January 27, 2026, on:

  • Mamaroneck Avenue, from Harbor Island to Halstead Avenue
  • Halstead Avenue, from Mamaroneck Avenue to Jefferson Avenue
  • Boston Post Road, from Barry Avenue to Orienta Avenue

Residents are asked to keep these areas clear of parked vehicles and to limit travel so DPW can clear roadways safely and effectively.

The Village reminds property owners and occupants to clear snow and ice from sidewalks and gutters. In C 1, C 2, and MC 2 Districts, sidewalks and gutters must be cleared within 3 hours after snow stops (excluding the period between 9:00 p.m. and 7:00 a.m.). In all other districts, the requirement is within 24 hours after snow stops. If snow or ice is frozen and cannot be removed without damaging the sidewalk, the surface may be treated with sand, salt, sawdust or similar material within the required time and then thoroughly cleared as soon as weather permits.

Additional Village Code requirements prohibit depositing, plowing, throwing or placing snow or ice into or onto any street or sidewalk; piling snow within six feet of a street or roadway so the pile exceeds 3 feet 6 inches above natural grade; piling snow so it covers or blocks access to a fire hydrant; and allowing snow, ice or water to fall from buildings onto public sidewalks.

The Village of Mamaroneck Fire Department reminds residents to clear snow and ice from around fire hydrants near their property and to keep hydrants visible and accessible for emergency response.

DPW requests that residents and contractors comply with Village snow regulations, including the prohibition on pushing or plowing snow into Village streets or sidewalks. Code Enforcement personnel may be recalled as needed to address violations.

There will be no sanitation pickup on Monday, January 26, 2026. Regular sanitation service will resume on Tuesday, January 27, 2026.

Village administrative offices are closed Monday, January 26, 2026. Emergency services (Police, Fire, and EMS) remain on duty 24/7. All Village departments will be open for normal operations on Tuesday, January 27, 2026.

The Village of Mamaroneck Board of Trustees Work Session and Legislative Meeting scheduled for Monday, January 26, 2026, will be held virtually, with public participation, and streamed on LMC Media.

Temperatures are expected to remain well below freezing through mid-next week, with subzero wind chills possible during multiple overnight and early morning periods. The Village offers cold weather safety tips, including limiting time outdoors, dressing in layers, checking on older adults and neighbors, bringing pets indoors, using space heaters safely, running water at a small trickle to prevent frozen pipes if needed, and keeping a winter emergency kit in vehicles if travel is necessary.
