Also, if we receive two inches or more of snow <br />an other time during the year, parking is prohibited at <br />6 Y 9 Y p g <br />k ' those times. This is to allow the Public Works Department <br />to clear the snow from the roadways in a safe and <br />�. efficient manner. <br />Snow Removal <br />The City of Hugo would like to remind everyone that it is <br />�./. against the law to deposit snow on or next to a public street. <br />4; Minnesota State Statute 160.27 prohibits plowing, shoveling, <br />"m blowing or otherwise placing snow onto any public road <br />right-of-way, and doing so is punishable by a misdemeanor. <br />ek/;fir Snow which is moved to the public right-of-way can create <br />lx� <br />hazardous situations, including slippery areas, frozen ridges, <br />bumps, sight obstructions and drainage problems. Property <br />owners are liable should an accident occur as a result of <br />improper snow placement. <br />Also, residents should check their mail boxes to ensure <br />*tiy' they are sturdy and in good condition. Mailboxes that are <br />damaged by snow, and not actual plow contact, will not be <br />repaired by the City of Hugo. Garbage cans should be outside the <br />edge of the roadway and inside your driveway opening. Cans <br />should not be placed on any part of the roadway surface. <br />Housing Update <br />Fall Clean -Up Day <br />Fall Clean -Up Day will be held on Saturday, <br />October 8, 2016 at Hugo Public Works from <br />8 am to noon.
