Hydrants and Vehicles

As we continue to dig out from the snowstorm this weekend, the firefighter in me would like to ask you to please dig out around any fire hydrants on your property or near your home. We know where all of the hydrants are in town, but they may be completely covered in snow right now, so if you're out shoveling -- we'd really appreciate it if you could dig out around the hydrant!

Also, please do NOT park in the street. The public works crews are out hard at work to clean and salt our streets and they can't do their job if there are cars in the way. It also will make it harder for emergency vehicles to get to where they need to go. Thanks for your understanding!
