    Steve…you need to have a ticket and tow policy for people dumb enough to leave their cars in the way of the snow plows. How else can the plows do their work? If they just went around the cars you can get 1) damaged cars, 2) big berms in the way of traffic which leads to 3) people complaining about the snow plow work!

    There has always been that rule, not a new comer’s opinion.

    Hopefully it will cut down on the rentals that have too few parking spaces for all the people they try to jam in to a ‘party’ rental in our neighborhoods, be it local renter or visitor.

    The plow finally came by my house – county area,washoan and onnontioga- around 4 pm, that’s 1600 hours for you lou, and left the biggest berm I’ve seen in several years!! That was also 18 inches of snow. My driveway was clear and marked. Man, last year I never had a berm, where is last years driver? I wonder when I’ll see him again, I have another 10 inches this morning @ 8 am. At least we don’t have the 5 plus feet Kirkwood is reporting!

    Bite my tongue! Here comes the plow at 8:35 am! How big will the berm be!
