Good morning, Board members –
As you can imagine, many members of the public are contacting Public Works about the
upcoming storm and locations that have sand & sandbags for the public. A list of locations has
been included below. We will be pushing this information out on our social media platforms
and sharing it with customers as needed.
Being well prepared for storms is a big part of the core services we provide the public. With
that in mind, we will be monitoring the storm over the weekend and have members of our
maintenance ready on standby in case they are needed. While everything points to a colder
storm for snow & icy conditions, there are some chances for considerable amounts of snow in
the higher elevations. As you are likely already aware, Public Works prioritize snow removal
operations on high-volume roads and roads that provide critical emergency access. Local low-
volume rural roads and cul-de-sacs may see minor delays during extreme conditions, but we
will continue to work continuously to plow all county-maintained roads as quickly as possible.
Brett Cambra (Road Superintendent) will be managing the storm and coordinating efforts
among Public Works employees. You are always welcome to contact Brett Cambra directly if
there are any immediate public safety concerns. I’m also available as needed.
Currently, we’re not seeing any warnings or concerns for potential flooding. If the storms are
as cold as predicted, I don’t anticipate significant impacts on lower elevation areas of concern.
Nevertheless, our crews will continue to monitor key locations throughout the county.
Enjoy your weekend, and Happy Holidays! - Josh
