Hartland Police Department 210 Cottonwood • 262-367-2323 NON-EMERGENCY Village Ordinance Sec. 78-5 (a)(2) Prohibits the placement of snow into the roadway. Reminder that when you are shoveling or snow blowing your sidewalk or driveway that placement of that snow into the roadway is prohibited. Please inform your snowplowing contractors of this as well. COMPUTERIZED VEHICLE REGISTRATION-The Hartland Police Department is an authorized agent of the Wisconsin Department of Motor Vehicles to provide vehicle registration and renewal services. To learn about these services, go to www.villageofhartland.com. Once on this website, go to Dept/Services, then Police and click on Computerized Vehicle Registration. Call 262-367-2323 during normal business hours if there are any questions. Please keep garbage cans and recycling bins clear of the roadway on collection days when snow is forecast or a snowplowing operation is underway. If possible, place these items at the end of your driveway and collect the emptied containers as quickly as possible to avoid damage. Fire Hydrants - For the safety of your family and neighbors, please shovel out fire hydrants within the right-of-way adjacent to your property. In the event of an emergency, firefighters cannot afford to spend valuable time removing snow to access the hydrant. Your cooperation is appreciated by all. Give the Plows a Break! Driving a snowplow is one of the toughest jobs around. Drivers must maneuver a 27’ truck with blade through village streets while dealing with foggy windows, swirling snow, slippery roads, parked vehicles and traffic. So please, “give ‘em a brake”. We ask that you maintain a safe and proper distance behind snow plows to avoid collision and damage to your vehicle from the flying sand and salt. State law prohibits motorists from driving closer than 200 feet behind a snowplow during plowing or salting operations on highways with a speed limit of 35 mph or more. Mailbox Damage Replacement Policy The Hartland Village Board recently approved to change the Village’s policy when it comes to replacing mailboxes due to our snow plowing operations. Now only mailboxes that are actually hit by the snowplow and are properly installed are eligible for reimbursement. Please note that reimbursement can no longer be made if a mailbox gets knocked over from the weight of the recently plowed snow. That is why we are encouraging everyone to check their mailboxes before winter. A properly installed and maintained mailbox will hold up to the snow that comes off the plow’s blade. In addition, the total value from reimbursement is now limited to a maximum of $75.00. Turn on your headlights and windshield wipers to provide greater visibility to other drivers and the snowplow operators. If you have any questions or concerns, please contact the Village Hall at 262-367-2714. Reminder from the Hartland Water and Sewer Department The sewer charge on your water and sewer bill is determined by averaging the water consumption used from September 15 - March 15 (January and April water/sewer bills). The figure is derived from the average number of gallons of water used during the winter months. This new average appears on the April bill each year and remains constant for the following three quarters regardless of current water usage. Using this methodology means you are not charged for sewer based on summer months watering uses. • How often does your water softener regenerate? In most cases, it should only run every 5-6 days. Some water softeners use large amounts of water in the regeneration process. This is a good time to remind property owners that even a small leak can cost you additional charges when the April sewer average is calculated. Some quick tips for leak detection are: • Record the meter reading on your water meter when no one is going to be in the home/building for at least 4 hours and no water is being used by dishwashers, washing machines, water softeners, etc. When you return, read the meter again. If the meter reading has changed, you have water leaking somewhere within your home/ property. • Check for a leaking toilet by putting 10-12 drops of food coloring in the toilet tank; do not flush the toilet. Let stand for at least one hour. If the food coloring has transferred into the bowl, your toilet is leaking. INTERESTING FACTS ABOUT WATER USAGE Average amount of water required for: Taking a tub bath - 35 gallons Taking a shower - 5 gallons Washing Machine -19 gallons Washing Dishes by Hand - 10 gallons Dishwashing Machine - 12 gallons Flushing the toilet - 3 gallons ILLEGAL SIGN PLACEMENT-Village ordinances prohibit the placing of any signs in a right-of-way owned by the village, county or state. In addition, permission must be received from a property owner before placing any signs. Any signs observed to be illegally posted will be removed by the police department and discarded. The normal violations we observe involve rummage sale signs, campaign signs and realty signs. Contact the police department at (262-367-2323) if you have any questions before posting signs. COMMUNITY NOTIFICATIONS-The Hartland Police Department is a member of a two nation-wide notification networks, which are basically “Reverse 911” systems. In the event an emergency message needs to be sent out to a targeted area of the community, we would utilize the services of one of these networks. The networks utilized are 1) A Child Is Missing, which is primarily for missing children and at-risk adults, 2) MyStateUSA, which can be utilized for emergency notifications such as evacuations, sex offender notifications, etc. If you are interested in signing up your cellphone to receive these messages, please go to our website at www.villageofhartland.com , look under dept for POLICE, and then click on Community Notifications for information. WINTER PARKING RESTRICTIONS-Winter parking restrictions are in effect from November 1st through March 31st. Parking restrictions prohibits parking on all village streets between the hours of 2:00 AM to 8:00 AM. If you need to park your vehicle overnight on a village street, you will need to call 262-367-0358 Extension 400 after 3:00 PM daily. You will hear a recorded message which will indicate whether you may park on the street during the restricted hours, or because of a snow forecast, no parking will be allowed. Parking citations will be issued to vehicles that park on any village street when the message has denied parking. A tow notice may also be attached to a vehicle and if the vehicle is not removed within the time frame listed on the notice, the vehicle will be towed at the owner’s expense. DRUG COLLECTION-In order to Reduce Substance Abuse, Prevent Childhood Poisonings, and Help Protect Our Environment, citizens can bring their prescription or over the counter medications, sprays, inhalers, ointments, creams, vials, herbals, pet medications and illegal drugs/paraphernalia (No Questions Asked) to the police department 24 hours every day for disposal. Please DO NOT bring hazardous materials/waste (household cleaners, paint, etc) or any items containing or exposed to human bodily fluids. Remember: No medications should ever be thrown into the toilet-Let us dispose of them properly. If there are any questions, please contact our department at (262) 367-2323 HOUSE NUMBERS-Municipal Ordinance 78-30 specifically states that all residential and business buildings must have the address clearly posted on the street side of the structure, with numbers being no less than 2 1/2 inches in high (suggested to be reflective). This is primarily for safety reasons so that the Police or Fire Department may find the property in an emergency. Keep in mind that the 911 system tracks to an address and dispatches the correct police and fire agencies. Please make sure the numbers are clearly posted and seen from the street, usually posted near a doorway that is visible from the street. Citizen’s Police Academy The Village of Hartland Police Department will be sponsoring a Citizens Police Academy in cooperation with the City of Delafield, Village of Chenequa, and Village of Pewaukee Police Departments.
