1. The City has a responsibility to all residents within the City to
keep all public roadways free and clear from debris. The Kennedy Fire
Hall and First Street will have snow removed first, in case an emergency
situation should arise.
All city streets will be plowed and cleaned after the Fire Hall is
completed. The City is fortunate to have most snow removed before people
commute to work therefore if any snow is pushed unto a private drive, it
is the responsibility of the homeowner to move that snow. *Alleys will
be cleaned after everything else is finished.
In the event of an emergency, which in this case will be
defined as a medical emergency and persons needing an ambulance,
the city will come and remove any snow in which to allow emergency
response vehicles to reach ones door step. The West Kennedy Apartments
will have snow removed after the first two listed unless there is an
emergency. The fee schedule for the apartments is the same as commercial
as listed below.
Commercial property owners that have approached the council and agree
to pay the following fees will have snow removed in the order that they
have approached the council. Snow will be removed at the rate of $25.00
per hour with hours accruing each month. Commercial owners will receive
a monthly statement from the City. Removal rates will be reviewed
annually and are subject to change.
Residents are encouraged to obtain their own means of snow removal.
If the city needs to clean any private property for residents, each
person will be charged $15.00 for each time regardless of how long it
takes or how much snow has accumulated. Removal rates for residential
driveways will also be reviewed annually and are subject to change.
