Removing snow from hydrants is now an issue in village In Gays Mills
GAYS MILLS - The Gays Mills Village Board was a rather mundane affair last Monday night until the last item on the agenda–then it got contentious.
All it said on the agenda was ‘Snow Removal-Fire Hydrants.’ It was the topic that Gays Mills resident Bob Lomas had been waiting for.
“First of all, I came to receive my shovel,” Lomas said.
It was a reference to a comment made by Gays Mills Director of Public Works Jim Chellevold at the last board meeting.
Chellevold had contended that keeping the area around a fire hydrant shoveled was the responsibility of the property owner. He told the board then that he would deliver a snow shovel during the next snowstorm to the property owner who had taken issue with the idea that shoveling snow around a fire hydrant was the property owner’s responsibility.
