“We want to make sure our employees are safe, and we want to keep as many vehicles off city streets as possible to help our snow removal crews do their job,” City Manager Harold Stewart said. “We expect our offices to be open and city services to be running normally on Monday, April 18, weather permitting, of course.”

City snow removal crews will follow the city’s regular snow plan that begins with snow emergency routes, followed by hills and school zones, residential areas and downtown, and sidewalks.
