A bill for an act

Statutes, chapter 10.

BE IT ENACTED BY THE LEGISLATURE OF THE STATE OF MINNESOTA:

Section 1.

new text begin

[10.52] SNOW PROFESSIONALS APPRECIATION MONTH.

new text end

new text begin

The month of January of each year is designated as Snow Professionals Appreciation

Month in recognition of the state's desire to honor, recognize, and celebrate the contributions

of snow professionals. Minnesota has thousands of private and public snow professionals

who work tirelessly in winter months to clear snow; keep streets, sidewalks, and recreational

paths safe; plow thousands of miles of roads; and manage ice with salt and sand application.

Snow professionals monitor winter weather and track storms to dispatch appropriate snow

removal crews and equipment. Professional snow services range from small residential

shoveling services to large commercial plowing and deicing for businesses. Snow removal

services represent a significant part of Minnesota's winter economy. The state declares that

in order to educate the public, the governor may promote and encourage the observance of

Snow Professionals Appreciation Month.
