5.  What is the Snow ordinance?
While the snow ordinance is in affect, there is no parking on any city street with in the city limits of Huxley until the street has been cleaned by the city crews and plows. After the streets are cleared, you may resume parking on the streets.  Also, you may blow and push the snow from your driveways and sidewalks into the street as long as the city crews have not plowed the streets and as long as you do not create a traffic hazard by leaving a big pile of snow in the street. If the streets have been cleaned, not only is it a violation of city ordinance to do this, but it still creates a traffic and safety hazard. It is always best to keep all the snow from your drives and sidewalks on your own property to begin with.  Thank you all for your time. Have a safe winter driving season.

6. What are the Emergency Snow Routes are designated major arterials and main interconnectors between major highways and other municipalities which are used for principal emergency, commercial, school and bus access. These routes are posted with signs designating them as “Emergency Snow Routes”. The policy is to provide maximum service on these streets in order to provide emergency personnel and emergency vehicles access to and from the police departments, fire stations and hospitals to respond to emergency events.

The Following emergency snow routes are generally cleared first:

* Main Avenue

Residential streets and cul-de-sacs are cleared next. The city's goal is to have the emergency snow routes cleared before the morning and evening rush hours and complete plowing of all city streets and cul-de-sacs within 8 to10 hours. If the snowfall continues after morning rush hour, clean up may be delayed until after the snowfall event has subsided. Under most conditions, the eight-hour goal for completing plowing can be achieved. With snow accumulations greater than six inches, the time it takes to complete the plowing will increase. At times some flexibility is required to this plan due to the amount of snowfall or equipment break down. During snow removal operations we try to keep the snowplows and other snow removal equipment plowing in designated areas assigned to each driver rather than moving from one end of town to the other. Other reasons for flexibility are time of day, school bus schedules and emergency response.
