On the street itself, we trust to our sunny climate to do the job. Although Silver Plume is a city street, the City of Boulder doesn’t usually plow it. And because it is a city street, private contractors are unable to plow it (for liability reasons) without a contract from the City. In the unusual case where we really are snowed in, Silver Plume residents are urged to call the City to request plowing.You can call the City of Boulder Street Maintenance department at 303-413-7162 to request plowing. The more of us they hear from, the faster they’ll be here.

On the sidewalks, we clear snow from the feeder walks that belong to the association, and because it adjoins our common area, the City sidewalk along Greenbriar. But the walk in front of your house is yours to shovel, and the City of Boulder requires you to clear the full width of it by noon of the day following a snowfall.
