Evening Update - Our plowing crews have been
working around the clock for over 67 hours to keep our roadways clear - wow!
Crews have now refocused on plowing residential neighborhoods and are working
as quickly as possible.
Storm cleanup operations will likely continue
throughout the week and trash collection services are running on a delayed
schedule. Thank you for your patience through this very lengthy storm.

Morning Update - The snow keeps falling and we keep plowing! While City administrative offices and non-essential facilities are closed today, our crews are still hard at work.
With the new snowfall, plowing efforts are refocusing on Priority 1 routes (main roads and arterials). Once those are clear, plows will move into neighborhoods.
