Learn About The City Plowing Process During a Snow Emergency

When cleaning up after a snowstorm, Public Works starts with clearing main roads first including major roadways in and out of town. At the same time, half of the plows begin work on neighborhoods and parking lots. Plow operators make every effort to remove snow as close to the curb line as practical to provide access for mail carriers.

Property owners are responsible for clearing the end of their driveway, snow accumulation near their mailbox, and during the first few hours of daytime following the storm, removing snow from any public sidewalk adjoining their building and/or lot.

Requests include a Planned Unit Development Amendment and Shoreland District Conditional Use Permit. The Planning Commission recommended approval of the application by a vote of 4-3 at their November 6 meeting. The City Council will consider the application in January.

The homeowners at 728 Wayzata Blvd E are proposing to keep an existing, illegal, and nonconforming fence constructed in 2022, which requires two variances due to its height and opacity. The Planning Commission recommended denial of the application at their November 20 meeting by a vote of 6-0.
