- (928) 535-7111

Driveways
Driveway clearing and cindering is the responsibility of the resident.
Mailboxes
Mailboxes that are knocked down by the county equipment during snow removal be repaired
by the County or its designee during the clean up phase. The area surrounding the
mailbox is the homeowner’s responsibility to clear.
Windrows
It is the purpose of the initial pass to open roadways so as to permit responsible
traffic flow. It is impossible to plow without leaving a windrow (which may affect)
driveway entrances. The County does not have the equipment or manpower to address
these windrows in the initial phases of snow removal. Hence the removal of the windrows
will be addressed during the clean-up phase of the operation (generally within 24-
48 hours after the storm has passed) on County Maintained roads only.
