Q1. Is there a place to pile the snow or will it be hauled away?

R1. Snow is typically pushed into the back of, and into the far unused corners, of the POV lot during normal snow events. It is to be removed when it takes up over 10% of parking area or snow banks are over 3ft high.

Snow shall be cleared from all walkways, doorways and gates to provide full opening and safe access for personnel and equipment. No snow piles shall be left in the plowed areas. The parking lot shall not have a reduction of more than 10% of parking spaces at the end of the storm as were there before the snow season began. At the parking lot entrances and exits, the snow shall be plowed back four (4) feet from the curb line/edge of pavement for traffic visibility. The snow banks shall not exceed three
