Snow Removal Procedures

Alert Signup         

A "Snow Removal Alert" means that an authorized city official has declared that snow removal operations will begin on public streets. Usually a Snow Alert is issued once we have received 2" or more of snow; however, alerts are also based on weather conditions such as wind and ice, as well as the amount of additional snow forecasted, and city crews may begin removing snow from emergency routes before the alert is issued. The local news media will announce when a Snow Removal Alert has been declared. Click Here for further details.

City Alert System

Alert Signup         

 Civic Ready is a mass notification service to inform citizens through the website, email, text messaging, and voice calls about weather, Snow Alerts, safety, street closings, city service announcements and cancellations. We encourage all citizens to register their contact information along with specific notification preferences and a valid address so you are contacted when your area is being affected. Confirm your subscription immediately after by checking your email. In the event of an emergency this will allow the city to immediately notify citizens of an event.
