We are expecting snow to begin today with the snow ending by early Friday morning, we wanted to send out the SNOW REMOVAL PROCESS for the community once again so that everyone has a moment to review before the storm begins. (below, and attached).
1. PLOWING STARTS AT 2 inches – Contractor will keep all roads and driveways PASSABLE throughout each storm and will generally begin plowing before 2 inches of precipitation has accumulated, and no later than when municipal plowing begins and roads and roads will be kept open with no more than 3 inches of accumulation throughout the storm.
2. IN EXTREME STORMS with accumulation of more than 1 inch per hour when the above criteria may not be achievable, the contractor will plow roadways at least once every 3 hours, and driveways, walkways and parking areas once each 6 hours through the storm.
3. MIDNIGHT TO 6AM – Contractor will have roads and driveways passable by 6AM for storms that start after midnight.
