During snow storms city residents should check local media  for information regarding snow emergencies. Also the city has installed flashing beacons with snow emergency warning signs on traffic light post at several major intersections around the city. When these beacons are flashing a snow emergency has been declared. Should a resident have any questions, regarding a snow emergency, they can call the Highway Department at 624-6444 or the Police Department at 668-8711.
