Mayor Scott Smith during his report at the New Milford Borough meeting held on January 5th stated he’s very troubled thinking about the next snowstorm.  He reported he rode with Chuck Welch on the plow truck during the last storm and he was concerned the current tires on the plow truck did not have enough traction for the roads in slippery conditions.  Mayor Smith is also concerned about residents shoveling, or blowing the snow into the roads.  He said this is a safety issue, piling snow back onto roads which have already been plowed.  Council members agreed with the Mayor and they discussed several options to rectify the Mayor’s concerns.
