SNOW PLOWING PROCEDURES
FOR OLDE SCHAUMBURG
By BEST LAWNS, INC.

The snow plowing operation will commence after there has been at least a two inch snowfall. Snowfalls less than two inches are only accomplished upon request and authorization of the Association.  Fulbright Lane and Allerton Drive are plowed by the Village of Schaumburg. The driveways, parking areas, centralized mailbox areas, main sidewalks, entry walks, stairs, and stoops are cleared by Best Lawns.

For snowfalls between two and four inches, Best Lawns will commence snow plowing on site after the snow has basically stopped to avoid re-plowing the property.  Typically, the work will be completed approximately six to eight hours after the snowfall has ceased.  for example, if it stops snowing by midnight, the residents can expect the work to be completed between 6:00 a.m. - 8:00 a.m.  Other than emergencies or special circumstances, please refrain from contacting Best Lawns or the property manager prior to the anticipated time of completion. Best Lawns will not respond any homeowner or resident phone calls; all inquiries should be directed to the property manager only!

For snowfalls above four inches, snow storms, and blizzards, continuous snow plowing may be necessary.  Best Lawns will clear snow to the best of their ability to give homeowners adequate access.  Driveways will not be hand shoveled except an eighteen inch strip in front of garage doors  Also during heavy snowfalls, it is not uncommon for the plow driver to remove the excess snow at the bottom of the drive first, and then return to do the rest of the drive later.  Sometimes to service the most residences in the least amount of time, Best Lawns will plow driveway pads where no cars are parked on the initial pass through the property.  If it looks like most of the drives in your area were plowed, and we did not do yours, check to see if any cars were parked on or near the driveway pad.  I assure you we will be back to plow all other driveways.  The anticipated time of completion will vary based on the severity and duration of the snowfall.

Applications of salt or ice melt to de-ice areas that have resulted from snowfalls, ice storms, freeze/thaw cycles, gutter/roof runoff, etc. are accomplished upon request and authorization by the Association's  board of directors, representative, or property manager.

After the snow plowing is completed, Best Lawns will make a final pass through the entire Association to see if any parked cars have been moved. Along with this, we will return to the property the next business day after 9:00 a.m. to see if any more cars have been removed.

Also, please do not place any Christmas lights, extension cords, flower pots, statuary, etc. across the sidewalks, driveways, or in any other work areas.  Please avoid parking on any streets or over the sidewalks when snowfalls are eminent.  If you have any further questions or concerns, please feel free to contact American Community Management, Inc. at 847-301-1133.
