Summary
Council approved on second reading an ordinance authorizing snow-emergency routes and removal procedures; members said the timing was appropriate given recent storms and the measure passed unanimously by roll call.
The Morehead City Council on Tuesday approved a second-reading ordinance establishing snow-emergency routes and snow-removal procedures for the city.
The ordinance drew brief comment about its timeliness amid recent storms. Council members said the measure is a "first step" toward more structured winter operations, and staff noted earlier coordination with regional partners and technical advisers.
