Streets and Sidewalks
Street Sweeping
Street Sweepers clean the entire city street system by designated routes. The City is broken down into 41 different routes. Our goal has always been to get through each route at least twice in the Fall, sweeping around the clock for approximately 4 weeks, to clear as much of the leaves and debris as possible before the snow flies.
Seasonal Parking
Seasonal parking restrictions allows us to sweep and plow the streets during the fall and winter months. It also helps us prevent the City's street from becoming flooded in the winter due to clogged catch basins.

Snow Shoveling
Getting a “handle” on keeping sidewalks clear benefits everyone.
Residents enjoy the walkability of our neighborhoods – even in the winter. Cleared sidewalks ensure you and your neighbors are able to use them. When sidewalks remain clear in the winter, residents who do not drive can walk to the bus or get to work, school or their favorite businesses. Residents – including seniors, children and individuals with disabilities – remain safe when our sidewalks are clear of snow and ice.
- The clearing of ice and snow on sidewalks is the property owner’s responsibility
- The full width of the sidewalk needs to be cleared down to the concrete within 24 hours after the end of a snowfall
- Sidewalks not cleared of snow and ice after notification from the City may be cleared by a City contractor at the property owner’s expense
