SNOWPLOWING: Per township policy, the township will plow snow as soon as possible after the snowfall has stopped. 

​

TRASH CANS: Please pay attention to the placement of your trash cans. The township is not responsible for any trash cans that get hit or knocked over by a snowplow.

​

MAILBOXES: The Township will also not be responsible for mailbox damage by snow coming off the plow. The Township will be responsible if your mailbox is directly hit by the snowplow, however the mailbox must be mounted on a MNDOT approved swing arm post.

​

PLOWING YOUR PRIVATE DRIVEWAY:

Finally, a friendly reminder that it is a violation of Minnesota state law to plow snow from private driveways, onto, or across public roadways.                                                                                                                                                   

1. This is a misdemeanor under Minnesota State Statute 160.2715 s (a) (1).

2. Piles of snow put onto the roadway, or road right of way, can freeze into a solid mass creating a hazardous situation for vehicles and snowplows.

3. Piles of snow put onto the roadway, or road right of way, increase the chance of drifting snow into the roadway.

4. Accidents and damages caused by putting piles of snow onto the roadway, or road right of way, may result in liability to the property owner, and the person responsible for plowing the snow onto the road, or road right of way.
