RACINE — Snowplow operators in the Racine area have been working overtime this winter, a season that has seen double the amount of snow as the norm. While that’s good for drivers who have clearer roads to travel on, it also costs extra. With repeated winter storms pounding the region with above-average snowfall, some communities are nearing the limits of their budgets for overtime pay. Hawes “Snow removal is ultimately an emergency operation,” Union Grove Village Administrator Michael Hawes said. “You do whatever it takes.” So far this year, Union Grove has recorded 130 hours of overtime for its snowplow operators. That is nearly double the amount paid out last year, and it leaves just 22 hours of overtime available in this year’s budget.
