The city uses spreaders to sand the streets and also has a snowblower to remove snow.
The snowblower feeds the snow into a truck, which then hauls it to a lot near the city garage at 11th Street and Haskell Avenue.
"If we have a bad storm, we'll contract with the local folks for snowplows and motor graders and sometimes trucks to haul the snow," he said.
The city keeps some spare parts in stock for its snow removal equipment, he said, but it does not have any backup equipment.
A TRUCK WITH a boom bucket normally is used for repairing traffic lights. But in November, the truck is used by the department to hang the DLA's
Christmas decorations on light poles in the downtown area, Williams said.
City crews divide the work of decorating the downtown area, according to several city departments.
While the public works department hangs the decorations on downtown light poles, the city's parks and recreation department decorates the trees.
THE PARKS AND recreation department also sponsors several programs and classes geared to youngsters on vacation from school, he said.
And for those who like the ice and cold, the parks department makes skating rinks in two areas by flooding low spots. One rink is in Central Park, DeVictor said, and the other is near the East Lawrence Recreation Center, 15th and Brook streets.
