TOWN OF ROUND LAKE
PUBLIC NOTICE – WINTER STORM RESPONSE

The Town of Round Lake is currently responding to widespread impacts from the recent winter storm. Heavy snowfall and drifting have resulted in downed branches, roadway obstructions, and limited access in certain areas of the Town. Our Road Crew are actively working extended hours to clear roadways, remove debris, and restore safe travel conditions as quickly as possible.

Due to the volume of storm-related impacts, response efforts may take additional time. We appreciate the community’s patience as our crew continues working through the township. Residents are asked to use caution when traveling and to avoid parking on roadways to allow plow trucks and equipment full access.

In the event of an emergency, dial 911.

Thank you for your cooperation and understanding as we work to ensure public safety throughout the Town of Round Lake.
