Streets & Snow Removal
The DPW regularly monitors all roads to ensure the safety of our residents. The Village has a street plan in place for maintaining and repaving the village streets as funds allow.
During the winter months, snow plowing and sidewalk plowing begins in the early morning.
Per village ordinance we ask that residents do not park on Village streets from 3am to 6am so that they do not interfere with the plow trucks. All of our streets maintain a high priority to the department! Our route typically begins in the downtown area, State Street, Williams Street, South Maple, St. Johns Street and Carrolton to accommodate the morning commuters and school buses. Once those streets are cleared, we work into all other residential areas. Sidewalks are also maintained early for children walking to school.
