PUBLIC SAFETY - Trustee Carlson/Trustee Harper

I-18-001

Information Item – Winter Safety

Winter came quickly last week! The Village would like to offer some reminders regarding winter safety. First, our winter parking regulations are now in

effect. Vehicles in residential driveways may block the sidewalk from December 1 through the end of February. Parking is still prohibited on Village streets between the hours of 1-5 am, except where noted in specific subdivisions. Parking is also prohibited after a 2 inch or greater snowfall until streets are fully plowed. Finally, please do not shovel snow into the street. This is especially important after the plows clear the snow and lay salt as snow blown into the street can create ice slicks and other safety hazards.

Trustee Schmidt presented the Resolution and moved for approval. Trustee Carlson seconded the motion. Public Works Director Matt Mann stated this is lining for short sections (4’-16’) of sanitary sewer pipes in 14 various locations.
