The One to Count On...

Even with the intense start to our winter, the City of Kalona has used about the same amount of supplies to keep roads free of ice. The city averages about 3 pallets of sand and salt a year, or about 6,000 pounds of material. City Administrator Ryan Schlabaugh says they haven’t had issues with shortages, but finding salt from this point on may be a bit more difficult. He says this late in the season they keep the salt and sand separate until it’s needed.
