Snow Loading Operations Planned from February 3 to 5, 2025

Public Works crews will begin snow loading operations in the morning of Monday, February 3, beginning with commercial districts, school zones and fire routes. This operation is expected to take 2 days to complete.

Snow clearing on roads, the sanding of sidewalks and clearing of public stairways throughout the City began on January 29.

When parking your vehicle in the street, please watch for signs indicating parking restrictions and move your vehicle accordingly in advance of the snow loading. Parked vehicles that interfere with snow removal operations will be towed.

Please note that:

• throughout the winter, the City WILL NOT PHONE RESIDENTS IN ADVANCE to remind them to move their parked vehicles.

Pay attention to parking restrictions and MOVE YOUR VEHICLE before snow removal crews arrive. This makes a significant difference in the speed and efficiency of our loading operations.

Also important, post-snowstorm:

• Snow from private driveways and walkways may be added to the existing snow banks BEFORE their removal, but must never obstruct public sidewalks, lanes or streets. Fines may be levied on homeowners and/or contractors who contravene these regulations.
• It is the responsibility of property owners to inform their contractors of these rules.
• On collection days, keep all containers out of the path of street and sidewalk plows.

Your cooperation truly helps us do a better job. Thank you for your patience and understanding during these operations.
