In the event of storms, where ice or snow accumulations are imminent, Lewis-McChord Communities staff will be on standby to respond if in fact the weather does affect the roads within the Housing Areas. While in standby mode, we will monitor local news as well as the Joint Base Hotlines, so we can provide the quickest response possible to the ever changing conditions. ROAD SNOW,ICE AND SANDING REMOVAL PLAN LEWIS-MCCHORD COMMUNITIES Please keep in mind, LMC does not have staff on site 24 hours a day to assess road conditions; so when conditions change overnight we will respond as quickly as possible in cooperation with the Department of Emergency Services and Public Works. LMC responds with a phased plan addressing current road conditions focused on the most critical areas first, including hills and major intersections. As we implement our plan we will cooperate with installation resources to leverage our assets, helping to provide the safest passage possible for LMC residents and staff. The work order line is always available to our residents providing them an outlet to report issues in their area. LMC may send Red Flag Alerts to our residents providing specific instructions and warnings regarding inclement weather when necessary. All Lewis-McChord Communities residents are automatically registered for the LMH Red Flag alerts. If you have specific phone numbers or emails you would like to receive these alerts, contact your District Office to update your profile. We also encourage our residents to opt into the JBLM Emergency Notification services which is another mode of communication from local authorities, including JBLM Commanders. · To stay informed on weather-related notices, join the JBLM Alert System by visiting: https://member.everbridge.net/index/453003085611338#/login · For road conditions on JBLM, visit https://home.army.mil/lewis-mcchord or call the road conditions hotline at 253-967-1733.

If you are concerned with getting from your driveway, please stop to consider other options before you leave your home. Major snow accumulations in the Pacific Northwest are not constant in the winter and can vary considerably. Resources on JBLM and in many of the municipalities surrounding the installation are limited, travel may be limited in many of these areas, so please use caution before deciding to travel away from your home. Monitor Local News and Command communications so that you are making informed decisions on your travel plans. While it is the residents responsibility to perform snow/ice removal at their individual homes and sidewalks in front of the homes, we will do our best to provide for the safe passage of our residents in and out of the JBLM neighborhoods and respond to resident concerns as resources allow. Be safe this winter season and Happy Holidays from all of us here at Lewis McChord Communites and Lincoln Military Housing.
