| Are
your sidewalks clear of ice and snow? |
| In this video,
David Bjorkquist from the Senior Commission reminds us all to pay attention to ice and
snow on the sidewalks in front of our homes and businesses. Take time to keep Robbinsdale
a safe place for pedestrians. |

| City Sidewalk Plowing Map |
| Below is a link to the City's sidewalk plowing map, which shows the
sidewalks the City machine goes through after each snowstorm. Notice the red lines are not
always on both sides of a street. For example we only do the north side of County Road 9
because of narrow widths on the south side with utility poles and residents' landscaping.
If you have a sidewalk along the street in front of your home or business, city code
requires the walk to be cleared regardless of whether it's on this map. This map just
shows the main routes where we focus our limited resources. City Sidewalk Plowing Map |

| Notice
of Aeration Operation on Crystal Lake--Thin Ice Warning |
| Beginning on or after December 5th, an aeration system creating open water
and thin ice will be in operation on the north end of Crystal Lake in Robbinsdale. The
aeration system is necessary to prevent fish winter kill due to low oxygen levels within
the lake. Lake users are cautioned that ice will not form in the section of the lake where
the aeration system is operating and that the surrounding ice may be weak. This area will
be identified by warning signs and should be avoided by lake users. |
