Snow and Ice Removal Policy
In order for a snow and ice removal program to be effective, a written policy must be established. This policy will guide personnel concerned with deicing, plowing, and snow removal efforts. It not only gives snow removal crews a set of guidelines to follow, but also informs the general public of the procedures being followed so they may have a better understanding of the City’s snow removal efforts.
This document is the official policy for snow removal for the City of Omro. All existing ordinances regarding snow removal from sidewalks, and parking regulations for snow emergencies remain in effect, and are considered a necessary part of the overall snow removal plan. The City of Omro will strive to maintain safe conditions for drivers observing winter driving conditions. However, this is NOT an absolute “bare pavement” policy. It must be recognized that, although this policy sets general guidelines to be followed, each storm has its own character with variable conditions such as wind, extreme temperatures, timing, duration, and moisture content. The policy must remain flexible and take into consideration these variables. For additional information please review the Snow and Ice Removal Policy downloadable file in the next column. |
