Cass County Government: Residents Asked To Not Push Snow Into Right-Of-Way

Press release from the Cass County Government:

02/02/2022 10:00 am

The Cass County Highway Department has been seeing issues with blowing snow and snowdrifts on County roads. Landowners are asked not to push snow into the right-of way, which includes the roadway, inslopes, ditch bottoms, backslopes, and around mailboxes of any public roadway, including the portion of the driveway within the public right-of-way.

Keeping snow out of these areas reduces the risk of drifting snow and creates better visibility for motorists and provides room for future snowfall. This would include State, County and Township roadways.

Pursuant to NDCC 24-06-28 - state law prohibits a person from obstructing, or causing to be obstructed, any public highway or right-of-way. For more snow removal information please call 701-298-2370 or visit our website at www.casscountynd.gov/maintenance.
