The snow that fell on New Years Eve and New Years Day was cleared even with the regular staff being shorthanded. Door County Highway Commissioner John Kolodziej says the department was short two drivers to plow so they brought in two retired snow removers. They were also working with some new drivers who were not experienced in removing snow from Door County. Kolodziej says it took the new guys a little more time to plow but they got the job done.

Kolodziej says they have two new hires who start this week so they will not need the extra help going forward.
