Please Don't Park On The Road During Snow Events
|
|
Because of the amount of snow expected, the Fremont Highway Department needs your cooperation and is asking you not to park on the roads that they plow. It is also dangerous for our residents and employees when you walk in the road during a snow event. The plow truck may not see you! If your mailbox is damaged by a Fremont Township snowplow, please call 847 223-2848. Thank you for your help. Please pass this along to your neighbors.
