The Public Works Department would like to take this opportunity to remind residents and visitors of the Tuolumne County Snow Removal Policy as we prepare for the winter weather.

It is illegal to park vehicles or store materials in the road right-of-way, which includes the shoulder. The County is not responsible for damages caused by snow removal operations to vehicles or personal items left in the road right-of-way. Also, if an illegally parked prevents snow removal equipment from plowing, this will delay snow removal for you and your neighbors.

Please remember that snow berms are created during plowing operations and they will not be removed by County road crews. To learn more about the County’s snow removal policy, you can access the document here:

As always, please use caution when driving in winter weather and if you must, please be prepared. The public can monitor storm related road closures on the County website.
