Title

UPDATE TO THE CITY OF BLAINE SNOW AND ICE CONTROL POLICY

 

Background

The City’s original Snow and Ice Policy was last updated by City Council adoption of Resolution No. 09-07 in January 2009. Updating the policy is warranted due to the increase in mileage of streets, sidewalks, trails and numbers of cul-de-sacs.  Additionally, updating the policy is necessary to reflect changes in operational routes, equipment, and technology usage.  Finally, this update will correct the references in City Code pertaining to Winter Parking Restrictions.

 

Recommendation

Provide feedback on the revised Policy update.
