February 12
With the possibility of a significant snow storm tonight through tomorrow, we wanted to remind everyone to help us help you by keeping your neighborhood fire hydrants clear of snow! The ideal clearance is 3 feet around the hydrant. This allows us enough room to hook up to the hydrant and also locate it during an emergency!
Shoveling your driveways and front steps, and making sure there is a clear ... (Full Story & Photos)
