Mayor’s Office

I don’t know where else on Unilocal to vent about my FRUSTRATION with the snow removal in the city. I’m a teacher, and I have to say… wow! What a crappy job the city has done in making the streets safe around our schools!
Our poor students are in danger every time they try to come in our building. The streets and some of the sidewalks around our school haven’t been cleared, creating a hazardous situation for drivers AND peds alike.
The schoolyard is still snow-​covered, so everyday at dismissal time, it’s a FREE FOR ALL as teachers try in vain to get HUNDREDS of children to stop throwing snowballs. Some teachers have even been pelted with a few wayward «iceballs».
Since the streets are still piled high with snow, the neighbors have began parking in the parking lot at my school, forcing teachers to scramble for parking places in the morning, while still trying to get to work on time.
Teacher and student attendance has also been poor all of this week as a result of the snow.
Can we get some plows around our schools pleeeeeaaaaaaaase?
