Snow Removal Reimbursement Program

As a result of the extreme 1995-1996 snow season which put a great hardship on civic associations' budgets House Bill 544 of the 138th General Assembly was enacted to financially assist these neighborhoods for heavy snow events.  The bill excludes private roads (roads not yet approved for state maintenance) from the program.  The bill further imposes price controls so that reimbursements do not exceed 75% of the amount paid to a plowing contractor or 75% of an annually adjusted formula based on state maintained road miles within the suburban development.
