Not an election year. So what's new?
ReplyDeleteAre those folks getting a tax abatement so they can clean the streets the city abandons?
ReplyDeleteTypical bureaucrats! If there us any fucking work to it they will figure out a way to shove it off on the tax payer.
Hence one might say that these hapless citizens will pay their taxes and get nothing for it. Fantastic!
ReplyDeleteExcuses excuses excuses.
ReplyDeleteWait, didn't we just pass $19M in special obligation bonds for the streetcar? It seems like maybe some of that $ could go to plowing streets instead...
ReplyDeleteGosh, like I haven't repeated this enough times since last March.
Snow removal was much better under the Cauthen/Harris administration versus under Schulte/McIntyre. So why are efforts moving backwards? INCOMPENTENCE. As a matter of fact, our streets were in better shape also. WAKE UP CITY COUNCIL!!!
ReplyDeleteIt don't matter. We ain't havin' no snow this year.
ReplyDeleteThis is why they need to build a toy train to these areas so in winter everyone there who can't drive can take the toy train to work. To those of you educated in the KCPS or UMKC, I do not mean this. I am being sarcastic.
ReplyDeleteAnother very good reason not to live in K.C.MO.
ReplyDeleteFolks, calm down. They are talking about cul-de-sacs and dead-end "streets" which affect only the few people who live there.
ReplyDeleteThey SHOULD be the last to be plowed, and after the priority of clearing major arterials (designated snow routes) and through streets in residential areas has been met.
As for snow removal during last year's twin blizzards, it couldn't have been better. They kept the major arterial closest to my house driveable throughout both storms, and even made a pass on my residential street before the first day ended.
I never had any trouble getting out and about.
Thanks Pat. Pull your head out for a minute?
ReplyDeleteDidn't the city built those dead ends and such? Didn't the city buy all that snow plowing gear? So now after how many decades it suddenly can not be done? There are a shitload of private contractors who would be tickled to show our bureaucrats how it is done. Oh I'm sorry! The city needed wireless ticket machines for the police, tasers, Fire Trucks for shopping at Kmart and a trolley car.
ReplyDeleteShitty public works director.
ReplyDeleteI grew up on a 'cul-de-sac' in NJ and it was continuously plowed, salted and sanded along with the main roads. The last time I was back during a snow storm I think they made four passes with a combination of full sized plows and pickups. Yes, that was the township and not a private contractor. So what's KCMO's problem?
