DELPHOS — The winter weather has been quite mild this year and in comparison to the past two years, this season has cost the city less to treat and maintain the streets.

Delphos Safety Service Director Greg Berquist presented figures from the past two years.

In 2011, the street crews hit the ground running and were much busier applying brine and plowing the white heavy stuff. The amount of salt and brine used throughout the season, 225 tons and 95,000 gallons, respectively, indicates a very active winter.
