On agenda: Final action:
Title: Subject: Communication sponsored by Alder Perez requesting to revise the plowing policy to priority plowing around a radius of 3 blocks around all private and public schools in the City. Staff Recommendation of the Public Works and Services Committee on 08.12.25: N/A Fiscal Note: 1. The effort for the above that IS NOT included in the DPW Snow & Ice Manual would require an additional $1.42M in operating costs which requires 2 additional FTE's in DPW. There are ~36 schools, both private and public, included in the City limits. 2. An additional request was the effort to contract to have all residential district routes (local streets) salted/plowed to bare pavement, similar to the main routes (highways, arterials, collectors). The additional contracted costs are $5.35M for this service. The main routes have ~88 centerline miles where the districts have ~172 centerline miles.
