We have seen plenty of winter weather and snow this week, the City of Marshalltown is currently under a snow ordinance. This is the 2nd time this week that the city has enacted this ordinance. Heather Thomas, Public Works Director, talks about different types of roads in the city.
Thomas next mentions how one would know if a road is a snow route
The reason the city needs these roads clear is to get those roads plowed as quickly and efficiently as possible. Thomas says that she wont ever send out a ordinance in the middle of the night, alerts will be sent out with multiple hours’ notice.
Citizens can get notifications sent to their email, or to their phone via text message. This is a great way to keep informed with what is happening in Marshalltown.
