Notwithstanding anything else stated in this chapter, the policy and level of service provided for in this chapter shall not include the following, and the following services shall not be performed:
1. Sanding, salting or placing of other abrasives upon the roadways that are slick, slippery and dangerous due to the formation of frost.
2. Sanding, salting or placing of other abrasives upon paved roadways due to freezing rain that occurs outside the County’s usual working hours.
3. Placing of additional warning or regulatory signs warning of impaired sight distances, visibility at intersections, road blockages, one-lane conditions, or that the road surface is slick or slippery, or what the advised speed should be.
4. Sanding, salting or placing abrasives upon any road, except for paved roads. If in the opinion of the County Engineer an “emergency” exists and ice has built up on hills and intersections on the gravel system that slope down to another road so as to become dangerous, abrasive material may be applied at these locations as crew and equipment availability allow and only as a last resort. This condition will not, under any circumstances, take a higher priority than placing of abrasive material on the paved road system and will only be done after the paved roads are cleared of ice and snow. Abrasive material will also only be placed after other mechanical means have been tried and failed, such as scraping with motor graders.
5. Removing of sand, salt or other abrasives.
6. Plowing, sanding, salting or placing of abrasives on any road that is not within the jurisdiction of the County, unless it is agreed to do so by a 28-E Agreement between the County and the entity having jurisdiction of the road.
