Section 3. Snowplowing Technique. Snow will be plowed in a <br />manner suited to minimize any traffic obstructions. The center of <br />the roadway will be plowed first. The snow will be plowed from left <br />to right with the discharge going onto the boulevard area of the <br />street. In times of extreme snowfall, streets will be cleared as <br />quickly as possible to facilitate the movement of vehicles so that <br />they may be removed from the roadway and the streets plowed to their <br />full width. <br />Section 4. Snow Removal. The Public Works Superintendent will <br />determine when snow will be removed by truck from an area. Such snow <br />removal will occur in areas where there is no room on the boulevard <br />for snow storage and in areas where accumulation of snow creates a <br />hazardous condition. Snow removal operations will not commence until <br />all other snowplowing operations have been completed. Snow removal <br />operations may also be delayed depending on weather conditions, <br />personnel and budget availability. The snow will be removed and <br />hauled to a snow storage area. The snow storage area will be located <br />so as to minimize any hazards to the environment. <br />Section 5. Priorities. Main arteries and streets where schools <br />are located shall be the top priority to be cleared. Secondary <br />streets will be the next cleared along with cul -de -sacs. The Fire <br />Department, City Hall, and City parking lots shall be cleared along <br />with the other priority roads. After the residential streets have <br />been plowed, snowplowing will then commence on park areas, parking <br />lots and rinks, and lastly trails and sidewalks. <br />-2- <br />Page 27 <br />
