Dear Friends, Well, I guess winter has arrived. A record-breaking one-day snowfall has blanketed our city. To help you navigate the winter weather, the municipality has updated its snow-plowing road maintenance website. This website provides real-time updates on road conditions, plowing progress, and any potential closures.
