Snow Removal Courtesy and Fire Hydrant Accessibility

Please be courteous to your neighbors by not blowing or throwing snow onto

other citizen’s property, sidewalks, driveways or in the city streets.

You can assist City Public Works & the Hickman Volunteer Fire Department

by removing the snow around Fire Hydrants in your neighborhood.

By locating and exposing Fire Hydrants the Fire Department can save

valuable time in an emergency situation.

The City Public Works Department will plow city streets and trails when there

is an accumulation of three or more inches of snow. Please move your

vehicles off of the city streets within 48 hours of any winter storm to assist

the Public Works crews with continuous snow removal.

Street Order of Plowing Priority: Chestnut Street (68th Street), Hickman Road (7th Street), Downtown

Business District, Residential Streets, Residential Alleys, City Owned Trails/Sidewalks
