City Of Hamilton Advisory For Bermuda Day

The City of Hamilton issued the following advisory for Bermuda Day

Camp Notes:

• ‘Camps’ can be set up from 1am on May 24 and a responsible adult must stay at the site from the time it is set up.
• Ropes, chains or any other type of barriers must not be used to cordon off the sidewalk and streets as this is a trip hazard and could cause serious injury to a pedestrian.
• The ‘camps’ must be set up so as not to stop pedestrians moving freely along the sidewalk. This includes anyone in a wheel chair or individuals pushing strollers.
• Spray paint, duct tape, permanent markers or any other substance cannot be used to deface buildings, sidewalks or streets. Anyone found defacing property could be subject to a fine to offset the clean up costs.
• Please place all garbage in the bins provided.
