Gaithersburg City Offices Open Late Monday, No Recycling Pickup

From a news release: 

Due to weather conditions, the City of Gaithersburg will open for business at 10 a.m. on Monday, March 17. Liberal leave is in effect for non-essential employees.

City of Gaithersburg snow removal crews have been on the roads since 2 a.m. Patience is requested as they work diligently to plow all streets in the city. Please be mindful that when shoveling your sidewalks, driveways and parking spaces, do not put snow back into the roadway.  This could delay the snow removal efforts and hinder access to your community.

Recycling for Monday, March 17 is being suspended. For those whose regular recycling day is Monday, recycling will be picked up on Saturday, March 22. 

Residents are reminded that they are responsible for clearing sidewalks abutting their property. This is often easier to accomplish if done during or immediately following the weather event. Remember to clear snow from around fire hydrants in neighborhoods as well.

Drivers are reminded to treat intersections without working traffic signals as four way stops.

Regular updates regarding the status of meetings, events and programs will be posted on the city’s website at http://www.gaithersburgmd.gov. Residents are also urged to register for Alert Gaithersburg, an emergency notification system that delivers messages simultaneously to multiple devices. Sign up at http://alert.gaithersburgmd.gov.
