Mt. Hope Snow Poll
Again the City reacted to a snow situation. Were you impressed or underwhelmed?
On my street the plows came early and often, which I see as an improvement, though there was little snow to remove.
On Camp Street, I shoveled a sidewalk early, there was only an inch and a half of accumulation, but then the snow plows came at high velocity and threw up on the sidewalk about 5 inches of heavy, wet snow, garbage and leaves, which I then had to remove a 2nd time.
Why can't the plowers use common sense and a modicum of skill to remove street snow without making the sidewalks worse. Is it neccessary to plow at high speed, thus sending all the street snow onto the sidewalk, instead of proceeding with care and finess and not sending the snow flying to cover the sidewalks worse than the snow falling from the sky"
I ask, how was it in your neck of the woods?

POLL
The most recent poll on the City's performance in Snow Removal showed improvement, in a definite upward trend. Let's hope that trend continues and is not just an anomaly due to the benign nature of the recent snow fall. Not one respondent thought that the City's response was "Hopelessly Inept", and that is kind of a backhanded vote of confidence.
Let's hope they can keep up the improvement.
