reminders on orrock township's snow removal policy

---

• Operations will normally begin when a total accumulation of two inches or more and snow has stopped falling. Under certain circumstances, the Town Road Authority may dispatch equipment when these criteria have not yet been met.
• Plows will not be sent out when the safety of equipment operators is endangered.
• The Township is not responsible for: snow thrown into driveways or for damage done by thrown snow or equipment to items in the road right-of-way, including mailboxes, landscaping, fences, or any other object in the right-of-way.
• Please make sure the right-of-way is clear of all objects and obstructions. This will help with the timeliness of plowing and the safety of drivers and trucks
• Please remove parked vehicles from the roadways during a snow event.
• When clearing snow from your driveway, move the snow with the flow of traffic - clearing at least 10' before your driveway, 10' off the road edge and 10' after your driveway to ensure snow storage does not interfere with road clearing activities.
• The Town is responsible for approximately forty-seven (47) miles of roadways. Do NOT attempt to stop snowplows to discuss your concerns with the operator.

Concerns about the manner in which the road is being plowed, delivery of ice control products or other comments are to be directed to the Town’s Road Authority -  Phone:  612-670-8762
