Oswego IL vs Oswego NY Life and Safety Issues
As noted in the photo, in Oswego NY they have a policy and procedure where fire department personnel clear snow from buried fire hydrants.
In Oswego, IL neither fire department personnel nor Village of Oswego personnel are tasked to clear snow from buried fire hydrants.
In Aurora, IL they have a more progressive policy where fire department personnel proactively clear snow from buried fire hydrants, use GPS/GIS tools and marker poles to locate hydrants and overall do a better job than the Oswego Village President, Brian LeClercq.
Call him at 630-554-3618 and tell him to do his job right and get the Oswego Fire Protection District Chief on the job also.
