Snow

The weather this winter in South East Michigan feels like it has been colder and snowier than the most recent years. After a few snowfalls, it felt like we were constantly shovelling our snow or putting ice melt on the frozen sections of our driveway and sidewalks.

Remember, most municipalities have a snow ordinance stating snow must be removed within 24 hours of a fall. What can happen if you don't remove the snow? You may get tagged with a warning by the municipality. Typically, this states you have 24 hours to remove the snow. If the snow is still there the city may call in their own contractors and remove the snow for you, at a cost! Believe me the difference between what a city charges and what the kid down the street charges is huge!!

In a few months summer will be here!!
