have about the same amount of snow as we have, but I did not see ONE sidewalk
that was cleaned, even around the high school and one elementary. The
arterial and connector streets were plowed (one lane) but NONE of the
residential streets have been touched since the big snowfall 10 days ago.
My son's street was at least 12 inches deep in slush. Many streets are
covered in built up ice, which have developed massive craters. We did not
go downtown - it might be better there. My son lives in the newer addition
off of Ramsey Road.</SPAN></FONT></DIV>
