- Reminder to all City Residents: Do not Blow Grass Clippings in the Street.
As winter storms roll in, we all play a part in keeping our community safe and our streets clear. Here are a few important tips to follow during snow events:
Help our snowplow crews do their job efficiently by moving vehicles off the street whenever possible. Main roads and emergency routes are cleared first, followed by residential areas—so your patience during major storms is greatly appreciated!
It’s not just inconvenient—it’s against city ordinance. Shoveling or plowing snow into public roads creates hazardous driving conditions. Instead, keep snow piles on your property or in areas that won’t block roadways or driveways.
Property owners are responsible for keeping sidewalks adjacent to their homes or businesses free of snow and ice. A clear sidewalk keeps everyone—from schoolchildren to seniors—safe as they walk through the neighborhood. Need help? Reach out to the city or local community groups for assistance options.
In an emergency, every second counts. Make sure fire hydrants near your home are free of snow and easily accessible to emergency personnel.
Check in on elderly or disabled neighbors who might need a hand with snow removal. A small act of kindness can go a long way in keeping our community connected and safe.
