Snowmobiles-No nos

Just a reminder that operation of snowmobiles in the City of Roland is generally prohibited, and riders are subject to a fine. There is one time it is allowed, and that is on a city street after a snowfall, but before the street has been plowed.

The reason for the ordinance prohibiting their operation is the damage that has been done in the past by snowmobiles driving thru people's yards, in particular on the arteries in and out of Roland (namely Cottonwood and Maple).

So anyway, if you operate a snowmobile, please do the right thing, and not drive in the yards of your neighbors. If you see someone being a problem, and breaking this law, feel free to contact our city's police force, the Story County Sheriff's Department.

HERE is the link to the ordinance.
