Surviving Snowmagedon As A Neighborhood
Take a look at the designated snow routes for our area. City crews will clear RED roads first, then BLUE, and after those are done, side streets.
TOP TIPS:
Park off street if you can. It beats shoveling plowed snow and assists plow drivers in getting streets cleared more quickly.
Try to keep fire hydrants visible and clear, for safety's sake.
We may not have school until Monday after the snow hits. But let's try to keep sidewalks clear for schoolkids, walkers, and letter carriers.
Please consider using “paw safe” snow and ice melt on the public sidewalks for our four legged neighbors.
Work together to keep alleys open. Trash pickup has been bad already, clogged alleys and streets will make it worse.
This is a good time to check with neighbors who may need some help with snow removal or a last minute grocery run.
Take frequent breaks when shoveling and remember to stay hydrated!
In the event of down power lines, do not approach, call 911 immediately.
Downed trees blocking public roadways may be reported to 311.
