Public works director Andy Haney says heavy snow slowed progress on arterial streets and residential routes. Crews from public works utility and parks moved snow to centers of streets overnight to open parking in the business district. Twenty to twenty four workers aimed to clear downtown, piling snow at Orlis Cox Sports Complex near Beech Street and West K-68.
Franklin County issues a disaster declaration and Kansas follows with its own as severe snow, winds, and subfreezing temperatures strand motorists.
