: Every year, property owners in Maquoketa are required to perform snow removal within the guidelines set forth in the City Ordinance. When failure to adhere to this ordinance occurs, the Maquoketa Police Department is the department in charge of enforcement. In some situations, a property owner may choose not to comply with the ordinance, and it is the responsibility of the City of Maquoketa to bring the sidewalk into compliance. When this happens the City of Maquoketa utilizes private contractors and requests bids for properties receiving snow removal abatements from contractors that can be utilized during this years’ snow removal season. If awarded, snow removal contracts will apply to the 2024-2025 winter season.
