Milwaukee aldermen are exploring refunds for residents whose neighborhoods weren’t properly plowed after last month’s snowfall.
The matter will be discussed today at 9 a.m. during a Public Works Committee meeting at City Hall.
The initiative follows complaints about unsafe road conditions after the city failed to clear four inches of snow on December 20, 2024.
In some areas, lingering snow and uncollected autumn leaves hindered daily activities and were scattered back onto lawns during snowplowing, according to a release sent Dec. 23.
The release stated that Aldermen Peter Burgelis, Sharlen Moore, Robert J. Bauman, and Andrea M. Pratt introduced a communication file with the Budget and Management Division to “explore the feasibility of refunding snowplow fees for residents who experienced poor or inadequate snow removal services.”
