DPW: Residential streets will not be plowed

DPW just emailed out a press release, including this tidbit: "Contractors will not be activated to remove snow on residential streets following a close examination of current and future winter conditions, with plowing of residential streets creating an increased probability for icing, including black ice."

It's also helpful to know that the city abandoned the 6 inch rule for activating private contractors to plow back in 2020, but that was easy toiss with just the one big snowstorm 3 years ago.

Linked press release has a link to that new snow removal policy, as well as some boasting about all of the streets that have been cleared so far.
