"Our crews have been working tirelessly since before the snowfall began to clear and salt roads, prioritizing the safety of our community. To support their efforts, it's important to keep as many people off the roads as possible so they can work safely and effectively. This also ensures our first responders can navigate the roads and respond to emergencies without unnecessary delays," said Mayor Amy Shuler Goodwin. "I want to express my sincere gratitude to our public works team and all our first responders for their hard work and their commitment to serving our community during these challenging conditions."
