Where Are The Snow Plows? Emergency Management Director Speaks … » Orange Live

Orange CERT member clears the fire hydrant near her home.

Sunday morning February 10

There are still Town Roads which have not been plowed.  Please stay off the roads as much as possible.  Many roads are one lane and difficult for vehicles to pass in opposite directions.  Please be patient as the amount of snow is very difficult to move.

We are fortunate that Orange has no electric power outages at this time and only a couple over the past two days.

When clearing driveways, DO NOT leave snow piles in the roadway, this can limit access for emergency vehicles.

Please clear hydrants in your neighborhood, if possible.

Check on your elderly neighbors.

The shelter remains closed at this time.

To report power outages, call UI at 800-722-5584

Call 911 for emergencies only.

Tune to local news outlets for weather updates, we will send further notifications as conditions improve.

Thank You,

Fred Palmer

Emergency Managment Director
