Maturo: East Haven to Ask for National Guard's Help to Clear Town Roads

The following is a press release from the East Haven Mayor's Office.

 The state of emergency for East Haven will continue until further notice.

• Mayor Maturo (along with Emergency Management Director EHFD Chief Doug Jackson) will be requesting the CT National Guard's assistance to get the roads opened and cleared (especially for emergency travel).
• The mayor asks residents to remain off the roads as many remain impassable; any non-emergency vehicular traffic will only hinder clean-up efforts.
• The town will be bringing in outside contractors to assist the Public Services Department with getting the roads opened and cleared.
• Mayor has ordered that any vehicles that are either stuck or parked on streets not in accordance with the parking ban will be towed as soon as it is feasible.

Finally the mayor is asking all citizens to assit the fire department by cleaning snow from any fire hydrants in close proximity to their location.
