Description
while I'm thankful for the service the county provides, I am disappointed on two accounts. First that I will have to repair my yard because of the miss of the curb during the last snowfall in January. In all the years of owning a home in the county and in Ypsi twp never had this issue. And of course the HOA in our sub will demand this fixed asap which isn't feasible, I'll deal with them later. but would be nice if the county would provide some assistance towards the sod costs. per bylaws I can't seed, must be sod.
second, our HOA use to contract out plowing services, never had this issue. but according to our HOA they were told the the county that we could no longer have a private service, yet I see other subs with private snow removal service. just curious if it is actually true that subs with HOAs cannot contract out service or not?

I have assigned this request to the foreman for your area for review for Spring repair. Unfortunately you are correct that WCRC only seeds and does not sod. As far as the permitting issue, all subdivisions can permit to contract a private snow removal company. There is no charge for the permit but a deposit is required from the HOA or contractor that is refundable after the winter season and an inspection of the roads. WCRC will accept any application from a subdivision with an insured contractor. Feel free to contact our permits department at any time with further questions at 734-327-6642. Have a great day!

Hopefully the HOA doesn't say anything (supposed to be sod) but I don't think it is logical to do sod
