The City of Indianola is well prepared for the winter storm affecting south central Iowa, with large stocks of salt-sand material built up for the next several months. Public Works Director Akhilesh “AP” Pal tells KNIA News last year’s winter did not have many severe storms, so the city stocks are in a good place.

“The good thing is we haven’t used too much of the salt and sand from last year, so we are good in stocks and have enough salt-sand in our storage units, and we are confident we have enough for the winter. Our concern at this time is planning out the snow removal and putting down the mixture to make sure the roads are as safe as possible for residents.”
