Ongoing Snow Response – The Department of Public Works & Transportation will continue snow response and recovery operations across the county. Residents are encouraged to report non-emergency concerns, including downed trees or storm-related damage, through the County’s 311 service at www.stmaryscountymd.gov/SM311 so crews can respond as quickly and efficiently as possible.

Sidewalk Snow & Ice Removal – Clear sidewalks are an important safety priority after a winter storm. The St. Mary’s County Sidewalk Snow Removal Ordinance requires property owners whose property borders a public sidewalk to clear snow and ice within 72 hours after a storm ends, or within 72 hours after snow or ice is deposited by a plow or vehicle. If snow or ice cannot be fully removed, owners must treat the sidewalk with sand, salt, or other de-icing materials to make it safe and passable. For everyone’s safety, residents and businesses are also reminded not to shovel snow or ice from sidewalks into roadways.
