I 2992 CITY MAIIAGER REPOBT TO CIIY COU}ICIt NO To the Mayor and Members ol the City Council D.'"1/23/87 SUbjeCt: Hanag,errs Report to Council (Snow/Ice Storm) Thursday night, January 15, 1987, Oklahona City began to experience the first Snow and Ice Storn of FY 86/87. Friday morning, January 16, at 5:00 AM the Street Maintenance Division irylenented the Snoy and fce Control Plan designed to keep open najor arterial streeta, bridges, overpasaear and the central bueiness district through the application of urea, sa1t, sand and nixed naterials to road surfaceg. Highest priority for application of salt and abraeive neterials was thoee arterial 6treets adjacent to erreryday nedical facilities and other etrnrgency genrices. Early Sunday morning, it was deternined that the nagnitude and intensity of the atonn waa such that normal Snow and Ice Control nethode uould not be sufficient to neet the City needs. For the firgt tioe, eleven snm plows purchased by the City in 1979 sere attached to tandem trucks for use in snow control. Convereion efforts began early Sunday morning rith ten (10) plows becoming operational by Sunday afternoon. ft is significant that gtaff acconplished this task using linited reaourcea and in eoe ingtancea by striping parte fron equipment considered to be beyond repair. This atorm nhich continued through Sunday produced the second highest snowfall anount, 9', in the history of the City. lle are continuing our efforts to keep the arterial streets open through plowing, grading and the spreading of cheoicals and abrasives. Since the start of Snos and Ice Control procedures on Friday, 243 enployees of the Street Maintenance Division have rorked in control efforts. tle are maintaining, two 12-hour shifts around the clock. The effecte of this 6torn bave yet to be deteruined, however, re have tracked direct cost and productivity for each eoployee ahift through 9:00 Al'l this uorning. It is ny intent to insure that our public funde are expended in a uanner to provide the begt poeeible 1eve1 of sewiceE in the nost efficient tranner during snor and ice. After rerriewing cost and productivity reporta, f an corrvinced that the citizens have been well eerved and erpenses have been within reason, given the extreroely severe oagnitude and intensity of the storn. I am eubnitting to Cqrncil a brief hiatory of the cost and productivity 1eve1e associated with Snor and Ice Control procedures from 9:00 Ail Briday, January 16, through 9:00 Al.l. January 20.
