Residents Warned About Yard Sales and Landscaping Materials in the Street

From the Haddonfield's Municipal Matters:

As the yard sale “season” approaches, the Commissioners remind residents who plan to hold private sales of the need to observe the regulations for yard and garage sales. They include:

• Residents are permitted to hold one sale in any six-month period.
• A permit must be obtained prior to the sale. The cost is $5 and can be obtained at the , in Room 101. The penalty for not obtaining a permit is $10.
• Signs may be placed only on the property where the sale is taking place.  Signs may not be placed on poles or trees or in the ground in the public right-of-way.

Residents and commercial property owners are reminded that dumpling mulch, dirt, sand, etc. on public streets and sidewalks is prohibited and that it is property owners, not landscaping contractors, who must appear in court when citations are issued.
