A: DelDOT will reimburse based on 5 storm categories, the 1st category beginning with pavement snow accumulation of 4" to 8". The formula is based on a mobilization fee + mileage rate + cul de sac/dead end rate. These rates are explained in detail in the informational letter mailed to enrolled associations in the fall.
 

A: The formula is based on the actual cost of the entire population of snow bills received from the previous year, the very high and very low values are eliminated so they do not distort the calculation. Typically allowances are added in for inflation such as fuel.
 

A: The University of Delaware maintains twenty-six weather stations statewide equipped with automated snow sensors which will be used for the official snowfall measurement. Accumulation totals are updated hourly on this website. Each association's snow zone is noted on their annual informational letter.

A: Knowing the financial restrictions placed on Home Owners Associations and Civic Associations during active snow seasons, DelDOT has, in the past, issued checks between 7 and 10 days. However, please be aware that statewide storms impact a larger number of associations and may slow the processing of documents. The State of Delaware requires that payment be made within 30 days of receiving all required documentation.
 

A: Yes, informational packets will be mailed in early fall to associations registered in the Snow Reimbursement Program.
 

A: Although DelDOT does not reimburse snow falls of less than 4 inches in suburban developments, the state road system is maintained at much lower snow accumulation because of the highway safety factor. The state road system has considerable higher traffic levels and speeds in excess of those in suburban developments, so we plow and treat the roads whenever there is a threat of snow in order to reduce accidents and the loss of life and property.
