Winter Reminders Winter
is coming and is sure to bring snow
along with its colder temperatures! Please be mindful of City ordinances
regarding snow removal . Following are a few reminders for residents as we
prepare for the season: SIDEWALKS–
The City expects the sidewalks to be cleared of snow within a reasonable amt of
time, please be courteous of your neighbors and children using the sidewalks. If
the snow is not removed, the City will post a 24-hour notice on the property. If
the snow is not removed within 24-hours of
posting, a citation will be issued to the property owner, a fine will be
imposed, and the City has the right to remove the snow and assess the property
owner. STREETS- Parking of vehicles on public streets during any time when snow/ice removal operations are in progress is a violation. Any person violating the ordinance faces a $50.00 fine Snow-Parking
Ban. It
is unlawful to park any vehicle on any public street or alley during and snow
removal period. The ban shall continue from the beginning of snowfall to 24
hours after the snowfall had ceased. Sidewalks.
Snow
removal from sidewalks is the responsibility of the property owner. You have 24
Hours After the snowfall to clear your sidewalk or the city may do so and bill
the property owner. Snowmobiles
and ATVs. The
use of snowmobiles and ATVs is restricted in the City limits as follows. They
shall be operated only on streets that have not been plowed during the snow
season.; They
shall not be operated in any park, playground, or upon any other city owned
property; They shall not be operated on public sidewalks or the area between the sidewalk and the curb line commonly referred to as the “parking”.
City Park Dexter
City Park For those of you still planning activities in the park, please be aware that the restrooms are closed for the season after the first hard freeze. Thank You
Fall
Reminders Reminder–
Items located in the parking– planters, decorative items, ect.., are
susceptible to the snow plow and during heavy snow events it may be necessary to
push snow back– please have these items removed. Remember– If you use heat tape for anything water lines that
susceptible to freezing, now is a good time to make sure they work– This would
also be a good time to remember all hoses from outside facets and check your
toilets to see if that leak– a leaking toilet can easily add thousand of
gallons of water to your water bill each month One
thing you should NEVER
do
is blow your leaves (or grass clippings, for that matter) into the street. If
your leaves don’t just blow into
someone else’s yard for them to rake, they will end up clogging the storm
sewer intakes. Yardwaste should be placed in brown paper bags, cardboard, or
trashcans clearly marked (“YARDWASTE”). Sorry, leaves placed in plastic bags
will not be picked up. •
Yard waste must be placed in brown paper yard waste bags (can be purchased at
city hall) paper grocery bags, cardboard boxes, or trash cans clearly marked “YARDWASTE”. •
Bundled brush (tied securely with twine, string or other biodegradable material,
weighing less than 50 pounds and in 2” diameter bundles)
may also be placed on the curb for pickup on these dates also.
CITY BURN SITE Just a reminder that you can bring
brush only. No leaves or twigs.
