Remove street obstructions
MEEKER | Town of Meeker Ordinance Number 442 created a clear operation area for all town maintenance equipment along all streets within the town. All trees, tree branches and other obstructions within this operation area or which are causing visual obstruction at intersections must be removed to permit the safe operation of town equipment and promote the safe movement of vehicular traffic. The clear zone and/or obstructed intersections must be cleared by the property owner by Nov. 12 prior to commencement of the Town Public Works Department clearing operations. More information is available at the Meeker Town Hall, 345 Market St., Monday through Friday from 8 a.m. to 5 p.m.

Snow removal guidelines
MEEKER | As the snow season approaches, please remove everything from the street, such as trailers parked along the curb or in cul-de-sacs, vehicles that are not used all of the time and basketball hoops. Basketball hoops must be stored far enough from the curb to allow the snowplow, including the large mirrors mounted to each side of the trucks, to clean next to the curb without damage to the mirrors. The Town of Meeker thanks you for all of the cooperation in the past and takes this opportunity to thank you in advance for your cooperation this year. If you have any questions or need further information, please call Meeker Town Hall 970-878-5344.
