Introduction: The Importance of Winter Snow Management for Commercial Properties
With the winter season just round the corner, businesses now face the challenge of dealing with snowfall and icy conditions. In places that experience heavy snowfall, keeping the wheels of business running smoothly becomes particularly challenging. This is where winter snow management gains importance; it allows businesses to stay operational and instills confidence in both employees and customers alike. In fact, a well-maintained commercial property in winter is a reflection of the effectiveness and efficiency of a business. This guide details out the critical aspects of winter snow management for commercial properties and why it is an important component of your business strategy.
What Does Commercial Winter Storm Management Entail?
Commercial winter storm management, or snow and ice management, involves the proactive preparation and response to snowfall and icy conditions with a focus on safety and accessibility. It includes tasks such as snow shoveling, snow plowing, snow blowing, and de-icing services. Furthermore, it requires comprehensive planning and consistent monitoring of weather conditions to respond quickly. The goal is to ensure properties remain safe, accessible, and functional during the harsh winter months.
Benefits of Comprehensive Snow and Ice Management for Businesses
There’s a lot more to comprehensive snow and ice management for businesses than just aesthetic appeal. Not only does it protect customers, employees, and visitors from potential slip and fall accidents, but it also safeguards businesses from liability claims arising due to any incidents that would occur due to snow or ice.
Moreover, by ensuring property accessibility, businesses can maintain consistent operations and deliveries during Winter, providing a competitive edge in the market. Indeed, well-managed properties in winter weather conditions convey a strong message about the efficiency and care taken by the organization, further enhancing its reputation.
Winter Weather Services for Commercial Properties
If you’re looking for winter weather services for commercial properties, it’s crucial to hire a team of professionals who can take proactive measures and promptly react to winter weather conditions. Standard services provided should include pre-treatment, plowing, shoveling, and ice management. Some companies also offer landscape-friendly ice melting, helping to protect your green spaces while keeping your property safe. These professionals should also offer post-event reports to keep you updated about the situation.
Choosing the Right Provider: What to Look for
When it comes to snow and ice management, timeliness, efficiency, and safety are paramount. Therefore, one must consider various factors when selecting a provider. These include the provider’s range of equipment, their level of experience, whether they maintain liability insurance, and their operational procedures during a storm. It’s essential that the provider can guarantee their availability throughout the winter season, so your business remains operational.
Your Role in Winter Storm Management
Businesses too play a vital role in winter storm management. By collaborating with their service provider, monitoring forecasts, keeping the premises clutter-free, and communicating effectively with employees and customers about conditions and precautions, they can significantly assist in snow management. A comprehensive snow and ice management plan is indeed a shared responsibility.
Conclusion: The Value of Effective Winter Snow Management
Effective winter snow management is a crucial component of maintaining a successful business during the winter months. It goes beyond the mere removal of snow – it’s about ensuring safety, reducing liability, maintaining accessibility and ultimately, operational continuity. To navigate winter’s challenges smoothly, a professional and reliable commercial winter storm management partner can make all the difference. By embracing robust winter weather services, organizations can continue to thrive, regardless of how heavy the snow might fall.

About Point Lakeview, Michigan
History
Chesterfield Township was originally established as a general law township in 1842. It became a charter township in 1989.
The original European-American settlement in the area was a hamlet called Chesterfield, first settled in 1830. When the Grand Trunk Railway came through in 1865, it stimulated the development of businesses in the hamlet. It had a post office from 1875 until 1907, but has since lost its specific identity.
Geography
Chesterfield Township is in eastern Macomb County and is bordered on the north by Lenox Township and the village of New Haven; on the east by Ira Township in St. Clair County, and by the village of New Baltimore; on the southeast by Anchor Bay, which is a part of Lake St. Clair; on the south by Harrison Township; and on the west by Macomb Township.
According to the United States Census Bureau, the township has a total area of 30.6 square miles (79 km), of which 27.6 square miles (71 km2) are land and 3.0 square miles (7.8 km), or 9.85%, are water.
Much of Chesterfield Township is dominated by suburban subdivisions and shopping developments; its population is increasingly diverse, reflecting area demographic changes. In 2010 some 89% of the population identified as non-Hispanic whites; in the late 20th century, the largely rural township had an even higher percentage of whites. Anchor Bay influences the southeastern part of the community, where many pleasure boats, docks, and marine-related businesses can be found.
Communities
There are nine unincorporated communities in the township and no incorporated villages:
- Anchor Bay Gardens is located off Jefferson Avenue at Sunrise Street and Jans Drive (42°38′34″N 82°48′45″W / 42.64278°N 82.81250°W; Elevation: 571 ft./174 m.).
- Anchor Bay Harbor is located on Jefferson Avenue south of Anchor Bay Gardens, between Sugerbush and Cotton roads (42°39′19.1″N 82°47′56.7″W / 42.655306°N 82.799083°W; Elevation: 577 ft./176 m.).

The first post office in the township was established here in 1837 in the house of Robert O. Milton, with the name of “New Haven Post Office”. When this was moved to New Haven, Alfred D. Rice established another post office in Milton. That post office closed at some point, and another was opened in January 1856, with Edmund Matthews as postmaster. This office operated until July 1904. Milton was home to a school, three churches, a doctor, a blacksmith, and a couple of saloons. The last saloon survived until 2004, when it was torn down, at that time it was known as the “Teddy Bear Bar.” The school, known as Milton School, was incorporated into another building, which was torn down in 2002.
