Snow Removal Edit page

Snow removal for Willow Ridge is a optional service that the HOA provides to units in the community that are in good standing (dues paid). Below are some guidelines for how snow events are handled and what to expect when it snows. 

Snow Details
Plowing will be done if snow is over 4". This will be determined on a storm by storm basis. 
Snow crews start within a few hours or the next morning after the snow stops falling. It can take up to 48 hours for the plowing can be completed. They will not start until the city has been through as well. Light blowing snow may cause us to not plow and/or can cause drifting after they plow. Link to City of Shawnee Snow Plan

Plowing includes:
Driveways - Via plow/bobcat, no hand shoveling
Front steps and walkways to the driveway from the front steps - by hand
Be sure driveways are clear, they will not plow if cars are blocking the driveway.
We do not provide Ice Melt applications.

If you have a landscaped area that has anything that sticks up (like a strip between driveways) or driveway that curves, please be sure to place markers to let them know where the edges of your pavement are. 

We have contracted for driveways and front step snow removal and they will be called out for snow above 4” dependent on a review from the HOA Board. The board reviews conditions that might warrant no plowing (wind/blowing snow, following days temps, Sunshine, etc.). Below 4” no services are provided. It will take them 8-10 hours to complete once they start and they should start within a few hours or the next morning after the snow stops falling. They may work late into the evening, so there may be noise depending on where they are. We will communicate as best we can via the website - Community News 

Snow removal is very expensive. We have a solid contractor however, we are not the only client they have, and residential is lower priority than commercial. If you need your drive plowed quicker than our contractor can provide, we suggest either shoveling yourself or hiring an individual (think kid with a shovel).

If you have issues, please allow plenty of time for the crew to finish and then email them to [email protected]. Thank you.
