to assure that our roads are repaired to acceptable conditions after an excavation. Please call us if you see a problem, or if you need to do excavation work within the city right-of-way. If we all work together we can keep the cost of repairing down while still maintaining a smooth road surface. Also, take a few moments and locate the nearest fire hydrant to you home and ask yourself: "Is it readily visible or covered and obscured by weeds? If we have a large snowfall could the Fire Department find it if there was a fire?" If you have a hydrant near your yard please help us keep it clear and visible. Trimming trees and weeds or removing snow from around the hydrant will speed the response to a fire. Just knowing where the nearest fire hydrant is will save valuable minutes in the event of a fire. Further, to get ready for the winter season, look at the condition of your mail box. Is it securely mounted to the support? Snow from snow plowing operations can damage poorly attached boxes. Every effort is made to avoid damaging your mail box. Help us by making sure it is securely attached to the post and out traveled range of a snow plow. Moreover, according to Federal and State breakaway standards, any support greater than a 4X4 wood post needs to be changed, or weakened. This so if it is hit by vehicles it can be easily shear off with causing significant damage or injury. Remember, anything placed in the right of way needs to meet the breakaway standards. Brick posts and steel beams do not meet the breakaway standard. If you want to have masonry mail box it will need to be placed on your property and not in the public right of way. We welcome your questions and comments and wish you all a safe winter season.
