Who is responsible for snow removal?
A. The Lake Forest Community Association has snow removal companies under contract. Snow removal street priority schedule is located on the home page banner button on the website. You can help with the removal of snow by not having your vehicles parked on the street when there is a possibility of snowfall.
Call: Street Department, (913) 573-8307 The Unified Government clears travel lanes of a street as soon as possible after a snowfall. In order to clear all public streets rapidly and cost-effectively, a ridge of snow is left by the plows at the side of the travel lane. Homeowners are responsible for clearing this ridge from their own driveways.
Weather conditions during the winter often play havoc with campus activities by dumping snow or freezing rain on the campus streets, sidewalks and steps. During a heavy snow or freezing rain, Facilities Management works under a “Snow Emergency Plan.” If it has snowed during the night or early morning, we work to ensure that campus roads are open for vehicular traffic at 8:00 a.m. The amount of snow, the temperature, and the condition of equipment are all factors in how quickly we are able to remove snow and ice for safe vehicle and pedestrian traffic. If you have a quesiton or problem with snow removal, call Work Contol at 301-405-2222.
The City of Alexandria works in a unified, coordinated manner to clear snow from city streets and publicly owned property. Three departments have snow removal responsibilities for the City of Alexandria: General Services; Recreation, Parks & Cultural Activities; and Transportation & Environmental Services. Transportation & Environmental Services is responsible for snow and ice removal on most public streets and bridges. Typically, alleys and parking lots are not part of our snow removal operations.
