I think that part of this debate rests on the definition of a snow emergency. (And I personally am unclear about it.)
In other words: does the city only plow after they've declared a "snow emergency," or do they do some of it beforehand? If there is some graduated scale of plowing, wherein the city plows some stuff (at least the middle of streets) without officially declaring an emergency, then yesterday's "late declaration" would be less offensive to me. Mass irritation seems to stem from the idea that no plowing at all occurs until after an emergency is declared... If this is true, then count me among the annoyed, considering the fact that I had shoveled my corner property twice before the six-o-clock news yesterday, when the snow was still coming, and no word from Mpls about plowing. Can anyone clarify these details about when plowing occurs and to what degree? Thanks, Connie Nompelis Ward 6 - Ventura Village __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!?
