Snow Removal Operations – Pending StormThe City Roads and Streets Department is preparing today (1/10/13) for the approaching winter storm. Anti-icing material will be applied to emergency routes to reduce the ice from bonding to the pavement.

As the winter storm begins, snow plows will be working 24 hours a day, on emergency routes and major arterial streets to keep them open.

A reminder to businesses and residents:Please move vehicles off streets to aid in snow removal operations.

According to City Ordinance a person may not move, dump or deposit by any means any snow or ice accumulated on private property onto any public street, alley, or public right-of-way. The fine for this violation is up to $1,000.

It is the property owner’s responsibility to clear snow around their mailbox. For cluster boxes, it is the responsibility of all the mail recipients to clear the snow from around the box.
