City Newsletters will contain updates on program expansion and recycling issues. A snow emergency would be communicated to residents through local radio and television media. During any snowstorm, it is the City's principal desire to keep the primary streets and intersections clear and safe. For a typical snowfall of less than four inches, all streets within the City should be plowed within 24 hours after snow ceases to fall. Even if a snow emergency is not declared, the City asks that residents do not park on the street during a snow storm.
Snow removal becomes much easier without having to maneuver around parked cars.
It is the property owner's responsibility to clean the snow and ice from sidewalks in front of homes or businesses within 24 hours after the snowfall ceases. Owners of multiple dwellings have the same obligation to clear all driveways. Snow should not be plowed or shoveled onto the street. Leaves should be brought to the curb or to the berm of the road if no curb exists. Please make sure leaves are not left in the ditch line so as to clog the storm sewers.
