Streets Department
Lynn "Bud" Carlin, Working Supervisor
585-596-1716
The Village of
Wellsville Public Works Department maintains the Street system using a
series of pavement management techniques. Residents are encouraged
to SLOW DOWN when approaching crews working on the streets for the
safety of all. The Streets crew is made up of your neighbors and
friends - - help keep them safe.
WINTER - - Winter
snow is removed using the Village plow trucks. The streets are
applied with a sand/salt mix to improve traction and decrease the
buildup of ice. The sidewalk snow piles are removed approximately
twice a year on Main Street. Motorists and pedestrians should be
aware that the goal is to keep the streets passable, but that care must
be exercised by the public when utilizing these thoroughfares during the
winter months as slippery sections may exist.
Street plowing and sanding will commence on an as needed basis.
The Village DOES NOT have a bare road policy, so there may be times when
extra caution is needed by drivers. Be sure that all cars are off
the street as per normal winter regulations.
Sidewalks are the responsibility of the property owner and are expected
to be cleared of snow and ice. Surplus snow will be removed from
the Main Street Business District as time and funds allow. The
sidewalks in the Business District are the responsibility of the
building owner or their tenants as agreed upon by them.
SPRING
- - After the snow has stopped, the Village owns and operates a
sweeper throughout the Village street system. Most streets are
swept a least twice in the spring. Curb repair and filling
potholes that have appeared during winter months and spring thaw is a
constant effort during these months. Residents are reminded NOT to
put lawn clippings or other debris into the street, as it eventually
clogs the storm drainage system.
SUMMER
- - summer is the time to repave streets and correct storm
drainage issues. Culverts, catch basins, and related items are
checked and cleaned as needed. Smaller streets may have a chip
seal coat applied; while larger streets receive reconstruction efforts
of milling and new asphalt. The street system is on a rotating
basis of maintenance that is developed through the Micro-Paver computer
program and the historical knowledge of the Public Works crews.
Residents are reminded NOT to put lawn clippings or other debris into
the street, as it eventually clogs the storm drainage system.
FALL
- - Leaf
pick-up is a primary function during the fall months of the street
crews. The pick-up usually starts in early October and lasts into
the second week of November. Residents must not put leaves into
the streets, but rather on the lawns directly adjacent to the curbs.
Putting leaves in the streets causes catch basins to become clogged very
quickly and
can lead to flooding problems during major rain events.
Street plowing and sanding will commence on an as needed basis.
The Village DOES NOT have a bare road policy, so there may be times when
