Some members of City Council like to sit on their hands until it’s time to point fingers. We hope you’ll think of them (and whose interests they choose to represent) the next time snow begins falling. Our common sense solution lacked votes to move forward this time, but we’re not done.

Last winter, we heard from many snowed-in residents who couldn’t get to work, school, doctor’s appointments, etc. because of road conditions. Especially in District 5’s outermost neighborhoods like Lincoln Place and New Homestead, it often took multiple days before streets were salted or plowed.
