City crews out in full force responding to yesterday's significant snowstorm

After another heavy snowfall fell on the City yesterday, the City Public Works crews remain hard at work with a full snow clearing effort. Their efforts are focused and continuous, based on priority routes. We thank the public for their cooperation and patience as we work around-the-clock to clear all areas across the City.  

Residents can help and are encouraged to continue to park off street when possible and follow parking restrictions. Clearing catch basins and drains around your property is also important.   

For safety reasons, we ask that you keep children away from snowbanks near the roads and sidewalks where plows are operating. Plows often have limited visibility and road conditions can make it difficult to stop quickly.

Motorists are reminded to drive cautiously and be aware of road conditions.

We thank you for your cooperation as our public works team continues to clear the streets and sidewalks.
