The City's Snow and Ice Removal Plan divides the city into zones, as illustrated on the
Snow and Ice Routes Map. Each zone has certain routes that are a priority to plow and sand. The priority routes are determined by considering topography (hills, sharp curves, etc), traffic volumes and special use by police and firefighters.
Update February 14, 2019
Due to the extreme prolonged weather, city crews have added additional school bus limited transportation routes and additional collector arterials.
Neighborhood snow and ice removal
Street crews strive to make major roads as accessible as possible for drivers. Unfortunately, the City does not have the resources or equipment to plow or sand residential neighborhood streets and cul de sacs. For services such as garbage pickup, City officials judge whether certain areas are safely accessible. If conditions are deemed impassable, crews will not enter those streets.
