Help us by being both attentive and cautious. At night it can be especially difficult to see people cleaning the end of their driveways. Please take note of the plow truck when it comes by your driveway and stay back away from the road, as the snow coming off the plow could even knock you over. If your mailbox is damaged by us we will repair it after the snow event. If it needs to be replaced, we\u00a0will replace it with a standard wood post and metal mail box.<\/span> <span style=\"font-family: arial,helvetica,sans-serif;\">Note that plastic mailboxes do not stand up well to wet heavy snow and in particular when hit by ice coming off the plow at 20+ MPH in freezing temperatures. With your help we will do our best this winter to clear the roads safely and efficiently for everyone.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"font_9\"><span style=\"font-family: arial,helvetica,sans-serif; font-size: 12pt;\"><br \/>\nThank You and Safe Travels,<\/span><br \/>\n<span style=\"font-family: arial,helvetica,sans-serif; font-size: 12pt;\">Howard \u201cChuck\u201d Hazelton<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The winter season is already upon us, please help the Town Highway Department keep your highways clear in a safe and efficient manner.
