Dogs

Ordinances require the cleanup of all animal fecal matter or risk a $300 fine. Please think of your neighbors while walking your dog. Clean up after your dogs, carry bags and use them when necessary. Thank you for your help in keeping West Easton clean and being a good neighbor!

Cats

Do not feed feral or stray cats by putting out food. Feeding these animals promotes breeding and only increases their population problem in our Borough. Food left out also attracts skunks!

Leaf pick up in the Fall

Residents are asked to put leaf piles at the end of their yards by the curb NOT in the street, for pick up. Leaves in the gutter cause problems with the drains. Please note that our vacuum machine is for leaves only. Sticks, stones, grass clippings, etc. are not permitted. These items can damage the vacuum. If you have any questions please call the Borough Office at 610-252-6651.

Grass & Weeds

West Easton Borough has ordinances pertaining to grass & weeds. Grass & Weed Ordinances requires all citizens & businesses to keep grass cut below 6 inches. Cut grass is not to be put in the street. Please, do not blow clippings into the streets. This can clogs the gutters and cause slippery conditions for motorcycles. Thank you! Removal of clippings is the property owner’s responsibility.

Snow emergency information will be broadcast on WFMZ- TV Channel 69 under the weather tab. We will also display a pop-up emergency notice, upon your visiting this website.

DO NOT place snow / ice in roads, on sidewalks, or next to fire hydrants. Snowblower chutes should be pointed toward your property, not toward the street.
