No countywide leaf blower rule. Several Westchester municipalities have banned or restricted gas-powered leaf blowers — check your village or town code.
Larchmont, Scarsdale, Bronxville, Mamaroneck Village, Rye City, and others have seasonal restrictions or outright bans on gas-powered leaf blowers. Common pattern: gas leaf blowers prohibited May-September or May 15-Oct 15, with electric allowed year-round. Westchester County itself has no leaf blower ordinance. County Parks crews follow municipal rules where applicable.
Municipal fines typically $100-$500 per violation; escalating for contractors.
