Ongoing maintenance:
- Patching, shouldering and graveling of various roads continues

- The road right-of-way extends past the paved portion of the road. Most road right-of-ways can be determined by measuring 33 feet from the center line of the road. In some cases, it is found on a CSM as dedicated to a municipality.
- Please do not place objects in the right-of-way, or in or near culverts (within the right of way), that may hinder snow removal, mowing operations, or drainage.

March 16 snow event follow up: The road clearing crews worked hard to help ensure that those who must go out (Police, Fire, Alliant, Medical Personal, Repairpersons, etc) were able to get to work and help us all. They continue to work to ensure our youth can get to school; and others can get to work, appointments and attend to other matters, that goods can reach the stores. Thank you snowplow drivers! There are also businesses and agencies are that involved with snow clearing activities, repairing service lines, etc. Thank you one and all.
