Snow and ice control consists of applying a melting agent (salt & sand mixture) to the streets during and after a snowstorm. If the snow depth exceeds 2 inches or if drifting occurs, the arterial and collector streets will be plowed.
Plowing occurs between the hours of 3 and 10 a.m. Note: Please keep your vehicles off public streets during these hours. Citations may be issued.
The Benefits deicing agents: In all, the Public Works Department will use about 4 tons of the sand and salt mixture each winter. This mixture helps to keep the public safe by improving driving conditions.
Additional Information: Under some conditions, ice may form in the gutters where trees and buildings provide shade. Ice buildup is removed when it begins to interfere with traffic and drainage.
