Council Committee of the Whole - Apr 20, 2026
After a rough winter with accidents on unsalted side streets, council discussed ordering more salt for next year — the planned order is about $500,000, and salting every street would roughly double that. The salt dome only holds 7,000 tons, and the administration is exploring shared storage with neighboring cities.

New truck purchases will grow the plow fleet from nine to about twelve, meaning side streets should get plowed sooner after storms.
City Council - Jan 20, 2026
Mayor Petras acknowledged complaints about this winter's snow removal, located 150 tons of emergency salt, and is meeting with public works and parks departments on staffing, shifts, equipment repairs and salt spreader calibration. He promised a list of improvements for council and the public.
