Last Thursday I visited the City’s Maintenance and Operations facility and observed the new/modified equipment that we will use for this year’s snow response.   Everything is staged and ready to go or available as needed.  This includes a new de-ice chemical along with different types of snow plow blades.  I was also briefed on the additional training that our crews have received.  Mother Nature will dictate the next steps.

John Marchione John has served as Mayor of Redmond since January 2008. Prior to that, John spent four years on the Redmond City Council. John’s family moved to Redmond when he was four. Since then, John has called Redmond his home.
