Walking
Walking is the least expensive way to get around, is pollution-free, and is great exercise. Connect with your community, stop and smell the roses, and slow down. Please remember, when walking, to use available crosswalks.
Sidewalks
Communities such as the City of Cortland, the Village of Homer, Marathon, and McGraw, and the Town of Cortlandville have complete or partial sidewalk networks. In all cases, the maintenance and replacement of sidewalks, including snow removal, is the responsibility of the property owner (the Village of Marathon does its best to clear the sidewalks throughout the Village). To report a sidewalk that is in poor condition or is persistently not cleared of snow, please call the following:
