ROAD PLANS FOR UPCOMING SNOW


The following was given to me to post for residents of Apple Creek Acres, per road treatment as a result of an incoming snow system arriving late Thursday/Friday.  I will be posting a weather-based forecast with amounts and timing Thursday, but this appears to be a slam-dunk for accumulating snow here, be it just 3" or 7".  Here is the road plan for ACA, from the board:

The main road will be plowed and salted after the snow stops, most likely sometime Saturday. If the forecast amounts hold true, we will plow the side roads as well (no salt on gravel roads, ever). We strongly suggest that all residents and visitors plan on our roads being impassable Friday and Saturday and make preparations now. Anyone who has to travel should leave a vehicle at the bottom of the mountain before the storm starts and walk out. Vehicles may not be parked in the road nor may stranded vehicles be left in the road.

I would add to that to please park vehicles at road junctures as far to the side as possible so as not to impede vehicles moving (or sliding) down. There will be another system moving in early next week that may well produce the same scenario.
