Reminders about ordinance
compliance:
Ø
Property owners
must keep their grass and weeds trimmed to a height of less than 12
inches. Per borough ordinance, do not
direct mown grass onto sidewalks or streets as it clogs drains and becomes
slippery when it gets wet, causing problems for pedestrians and
bicyclists.
Ø
Pet owners must
clean up after their animals when on public property. Certain poisonous or dangerous animals,
domestic fowl, and wild animals may not be kept in the borough. It is unlawful for animal owners to allow
their pets (including cats) to run at large (unleashed). It is unlawful for persons to allow their
pets to make noise continuously for 20 minutes or intermittently for ½ hr. To report dogs running loose or dangerous
dogs, please call State Dog Warden Tracy Miller at 717-571-3627 or
717-772-4352.
Ø
It is a violation of Hyndman Borough’s
nuisance ordinance to store junk on your property. It is also illegal to store abandoned
vehicles (without a valid registration or current inspection) on private or
public property in Hyndman Borough.
Burning garbage is also not allowed.
Also, having dilapidated/dangerous structures on a property within the
borough is a violation of borough ordinance and state building-code laws.
Ø
Hyndman Borough’s curfew ordinance
states: “....it shall be unlawful for any person under the age of eighteen (18)
years to be or remain in or upon any of the streets, alleys, parks or other
