Residents can obtain a bucket of free salt/sand mixture to help address ice issues that occur during the freeze/thaw cycles that are common at this time of the year. There are two locations in Rochester where residents can find this mix, accessible 24/7:

• Northeast behind Fiesta Café in the Northbrook Shopping Center - 1643 1/2 N Broadway Ave
• Southwest at the end of 1 Avenue SW next to the First & Banks Apartments - 705 1st Ave SW 

Residents must bring their own supplies as buckets/bags and shovels are not provided. Residents are encouraged to sweep up any salt and sand left on bare pavement to save it for future re-use and to prevent it from running off into nearby waterways.
