discharge shall go onto the boulevard area of the street. There is no known way to keep snow <br />from filing the end of driveways as the plow passes by. <br /> <br />Sanding will start as soon as the vehicles currently equipped with sanding devices have <br />completed their plow routes.Salting may occur while plowing depending on the conditions. <br />Generally intersections, hills, and curves are salted during plowing. If severe ice conditions <br />exist, the sanding trucks may be pulled from their plow routes to being sanding. Other plow <br />units will then complete the plow routes of the vehicles used to sand.salt applications may be <br />more widespread. <br /> <br />Salt is purchased from Ramsey County. It is loaded by Ramsey County operators that measure <br />tonnage via scales on the loader. Excess salt returned to storage is estimated and recorded by the <br />plow operator.and sand shall be ordered and mixed in controlled quantities, based upon usage, in <br />order to avoid excessive storage. The quality of the material is affected by long storage. The salt <br />and sand is usually mixed at between 15% to 20% or approximately 18 tons of salt every 100 <br />tons of sand. <br /> <br />The City of Arden Hills does not have a dry pavement policy so those using City maintained <br />rights-of-way are expected to exercise careful judgment and caution during winter months. <br /> <br />During light to normal snowfalls, streets shall be plowed to full width as soon after the initial <br />pass as possible. During heavier snowfalls, the streets shall be plowed as wide as possible <br />initially and widened as the storm intensity lessens. After the storm subsides, clean-up <br />operations shall begin in order to clear intersections and snow storage areas along corners and <br />boulevards. It is the City’s intent to complete the initial plowing and sanding salting operations <br />within twenty-four (24) hours of light snowfalls and within seventy-two (72) hours of heavy <br />snowfalls. Major blizzards may require more time. <br /> <br />PARKING RESTRICTIONS <br />On-street parking is not compatible with efficient snowplowing operations. Vehicles left parked <br />on the street for extended periods of time created significant operational problems for snowplow <br />operators as well as safety problems due to packed snow and ice remaining on the roadway <br />around the vehicle. The City’s Ordinance prohibit parking of vehicles on City streets after the <br />accumulation of two inches or more of snow, with the prohibition continuing until snow removal <br />or plowing thereof has been completed. Any vehicle parked in violation of this Ordinance is <br />subject to a parking citation and is also declared to be a safety hazard and nuisance. This <br />nuisance may be summarily abated by removing and towing away such vehicle under the <br />direction of the Ramsey County Sheriff’s Department. Enforcement of this Ordinance shall be <br />directed by the City Council. <br /> <br />SNOW REMOVAL <br />Certain locations within our community may require additional service after snowplowing <br />operations cease. This shall be referred to as “snow removal”. Snow removal hereinafter will be <br />defined as the loading and trucking of snow to an approved site under the direction of the O & <br />MPublic Works Director or his designated representative. This service may be proved when
