Common use of Standards for Work Clause in Contracts

Standards for Work. Snow and ice shall be removed to, or as close as practicable to, the normal street surface (whether concrete, bituminous or crushed rock), for the full finished street width (curb-face to curb-face, or edge of shoulder for streets without curbs), unless the Public Works Director otherwise directs. Upon direction of said Director, accumulations of snow and ice at street edges shall be pushed further back or removed to provide for subsequent plowing, but care shall be taken to avoid damage to curbs, grass, trees, shrubs, mailboxes and other objects in boulevards and abutting properties. Salt and/or other surface treatment materials shall be applied, upon direction of said Director, to the driving lanes of streets, with emphasis on intersections and approaches to intersections. Since State Trunk Highway “35” is under the jurisdiction of the State of Wisconsin, services thereon shall be at the express direction of the Public Works Director.
