During a snow event, the City is divided into four quadrants with the City's four snowplows working simultaneously.  Street and Park Division personnel work 12-hour shifts, 7 days a week until the streets are passable.  Streets are prioritized with major arteries, hills and curves being the first to be treated and cleared.

The Street Department will be working in the following priority order:
