City of Aurora

How to complain about streets not plowed?

Medical Emergency Street Plowing

I need to access medical care but streets aren’t plowed.

If you have a medical condition and need special access during or after a snow storm, call the police non-emergency line at 303.627.3100. They will coordinate with the City of Aurora’s Public Works Department to make sure your residence is accessible.

Help with Shoveling

I can’t shovel my own sidewalk.

If you cannot afford to hire out the snow clearing work to a private party, Snow Busters is an Aurora program designed to match volunteers with low-income residents needed help to clear their sidewalks. To get free assistance, the resident must be 60 years or older, or physically challenged, with a qualifying low income level.

Report a Neighbor Sidewalk Clearing Violation

How to report a property that has not been shoveled?

Contact Access Aurora at 303.739.7000 or file a complaint online at https://www.auroragov.org/contactus.

Wait at least 24 hours from the last snowfall before reporting a violation on a neighbor’s property.

Icy Roads
After Initial Plowing

The snow / ice on plowed roads is hazardous

North-facing and shady areas on streets sometimes need attention.

Contact the City of Aurora’s Streets division at 303.326.8200 for any section of street that remains ice-packed or impassable after several days.
