Snow Plowing Helpful Hints

• Village Snow Plow trucks will be dispatched for 2 inches snow and/or ice accumulation or more.
• No parking on Village streets after or during a 2 inch snow
• When plowing or shoveling driveways please do not push snow on to the street
• When following behind snowplows please stay back at least a car length
• Plow trucks back up frequently at intersections, so please stay back since the driver’s visibility is limited
• If you don’t need to be out in a snowstorm please stay home
• Snowmobiles and four-wheelers are not allowed on the street
• Walking, jogging or cross-country skiing should not be done on the street. You might not be visible to the snowplow operators.
• Landscaping should not be placed close to the road edges
• Please make sure your garbage cans are off the street and keep all other structures such as basketball hoops and trailers off the street.
• Be patient and understanding
