This is mostly to vent but if anyone has insight, please chime in.
I have lived in this city for 10 years and the way it approaches snow is absolutely baffling to me. It's like they think if they just ignore it, it will go away. And yeah, it will; but not for literal months and in the meantime people will be hurt and majorly inconvenienced. This is a basic city service. In other northern cities, as soon as it begins snowing, plows are out salting and starting to remove snow from major roadways. Sunday's snow began at like 5 AM and continued *all day*, yet the city didn't even beginning plowing until Monday!
If you are not continually clearing the snow, it compacts and ices over. Any fut
