Snow removal equipment failures and new snow blower purchase

Port Chester

Summary

The village's 1971 Sicard snow plow and a John Deere loader both broke down during January's storms, hampering removal of roughly 1,000 truckloads of snow. The board bought a $255,000 snow blower attachment so crews can throw snow into dump trucks and clear the village's 132 miles of road faster.
