Upcoming Water Bill:

The next quarterly bill will be issued on December 29, 2023.

The water payment will be due on January 22, 2024. 

Sidewalks and curb ramps must be clear of all snow and ice within 24 hours from the time snow ceases to accumulate.

Residents are also asked to help keep area fire hydrants cleared of snow to allow easy access in case of a fire.

The City does not plow streets unless the total accumulation of snow is 3 or more inches. Anything less than 3 inches will be covered by salting operations which commence at the request of the Police Department or the Public Works Director.

Major thoroughfares have first priority. The City does not have a “bare street” program for residential areas, meaning that salting is typically reserved for intersections, hills, mid-blocks, and curved roadways.

As much as many people would like, it is impossible for the City to schedule snow removal times to coincide with their respective snow shoveling or snow removal from their driveways.  Plowing streets inevitably will put snow on property owner's driveway approaches.  Per Ordinance Section 6.1.3(d)(4) the city does not assume responsibility for the removal or clearance of snow, ice or sleet or the opening of any windrows at private driveways within the dedicated portion of the city street. Property owners are responsible for clearing all snow accumulated at the end of the driveway. 

The City does not plow or maintain County or State highways located within Glendale. Those streets include North Green Bay Ave north of West Good Hope Rd, West Good Hope Rd from Nort Port Washington Rd west to the city limits, West Mill Rd, North Milwaukee River Pkwy, and North Port Washington Rd from West Daphne Rd north to the city limits.

The Public Works Department is responsible for all snow plowing, however, please have the appropriate amount of patience and understanding for them to work in this type of climate.

After each inclement weather event, the city will inspect all sidewalks and curb ramps to ensure they are safely passable. If a sidewalk or curb ramp is not safely passable, a notice may be posted or otherwise placed at the property indicating the need to comply with the snow and ice removal requirement within a specific time. 
 
Upon re-inspection, any sidewalk or curb ramp not properly cleared will be cleared by the City with all costs and expenses, including administrative fees and/or ice and salt/sand costs, charged to the property owner or manager as a special assessment. Residents are also asked to help keep area fire hydrants cleared of snow to allow easy access in case of a fire.

All dogs and cats over five months old are required to be licensed. A total of no more than three dogs or cats is allowed per residence.

Applications to renew dog and cat licenses are mailed by the Milwaukee Area Domestic Animal Control Commission (MADACC) in January.

Licenses can be obtained from MADACC's website for a small online servicing fee, or at Glendale City Hall during regular business hours.

If obtained from MADACC, please make checks payable to "MADACC". If obtained from the City of Glendale, please make checks payable to "City of Glendale".
