IMHO, the response to this recent snow emergency is most likely due to the
crappy service during the last one. I live on Garfield. Last snow
emergency, cars were ticketed but not towed, and the street was not plowed
at all. Three days after that storm, Garfield was a lovely ice rink.
Starting my braking to a stop for the stop sign at 26th St. at least three
car lengths before the intersection, I slid (read TOTAL ICE SLICK) over one
full lane into 26th, with several cars heading straight at me down the one
way. When solicited to respond to the city's "how'd we do?" website, I
gave them my humble opinion.
So yes, this snow will melt. But the city may just be trying to save face
for the very poor job done last time.
