Streets and alleys in the central business district are treated separately from other snow and ice control operations because snow storage within the street and alley rights-of-way is not desirable. Snow removal is normally accomplished by melting with chemicals or by hauling the snow from the area. Snowplowing procedures are utilized only to the extent that storage of snow along the traveled portion of the roadway will not inhibit vehicle movement in and out of parking stalls. When snow removal operations begin, streets and alleys in and near the central business area are sanded and salted. Snow is not hauled from the area unless there is an accumulation and the temperature is too low for the sand and salt application to effectively melt the snow. Snow is not hauled from the central business district during the day unless the streets and alleys become impassable. Snow hauling operations normally commence during night-time hours only when the storm has subsided. If it is snowing at 9:0
