Streets
A. HOW PLOWED
Streets
are plowed from the center to the right
lanes first. When 4” or more
accumulates in parking lanes, snow is
plowed from the right parking lanes to
the boulevard.
Alleys are
plowed from the center to the right.
Main Street
and Highway 93 are plowed and loaded per Mn/DOT policy.
The purpose
of the plowing is to remove snow from streets and alleys as quickly, safely
and economically as possible allowing residents to use City of Henderson thoroughfares
as expediently and safely as possible.
B. PRIORITIES
Hills
are plowed first-Church Hill, West Ridge
Boulevard, Ridge Road and North 8th Street
are the highest priorities. Other
sections of town are opened alternately
after each respective snow plowing. Plowing
is done anytime there is a snowfall of
2” or more. Sanding is done
when and where needed. Any cars
parked along side streets are encouraged
to be moved. If vehicles are not
moved after 24 hours the police chief
discusses the matter with the vehicle
owner and it is either immediately moved
or towed.

CITY RESIDENTS ARE REQUIRED TO COMPLY
WITH THE FOLLOWING:
- Shovel all sidewalks within 12 hours
