We think... If we get snow again this season, remember that plowing will occur whenever the City gets at least two inches of snow accumulation. Plows will get as close to mailboxes as possible, but residents must clean in front of and around mailboxes and fire hydrants for access. Please ensure trash and recycle cans are placed behind the curb, as this allows operators to plow the entire roadway. Only park vehicles on the streets after they have been plowed. As a reminder, parking is not permitted on any city street between 2 and 6 a.m. year-round. Thank you for your continued support. The Public Works crew appreciates it!
