Vehicles parl<ed <br />along the roadway cause the snowplows to go around them, leaving <br />unplowed areas. They also present a danger to plow drivers when <br />visibility is poor. These "snowbirds" are tagged and towed at the <br />owner's expense! Save yourself money and aggravation while you <br />help us provide for safe and efficient snowplowing services. <br /> <br />There is little room left for wisdom when one is fit/I of judgement. - Malcolm Hein <br />
