(KNZA)--With more snow in the forecast for this week, the Hiawatha City Commission Monday evening approved a revised snow removal policy.
City Administrator Brad Scott said the policy was reviewed following last month's winter blizzard that dumped around 14 inches of snow.
Scott said one of the changes being made is that snow will no longer be piled at intersections, which obstructs the view of motorists. He said they want to keep it at least 30 feet back from the intersection.
In addition, Scott said steps will be taken to minimize the damage to curbs during the snow removal process.
Steps will also be taken to prevent the piling of snow in front of private drives and alley's.
Property owners are reminded that they are responsible for the removal of snow on the sidewalks adjacent to their property.
