<DIV><SPAN class=953395116-10012009><FONT face=Arial color=#0000ff size=2>There
is no public transit in these areas. There are people who have to
walk. They have boots. They are walking, sometimes in a foot of
slush. But why should they have to walk in the same lane as speeding
chip trucks because adjacent landowners are too lazy to clean their
sidewalks?</FONT></SPAN></DIV>

<DIV>I don't mean to sound insensitive; </DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>But this is Idaho. It snows. It snows a lot. If snow is such a
burden for people that they feel a need to sue people over not being
available 24/7 to remove it from every inch of city property that within
50 ft of them, they should consider a move South. </DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>People, it snows, don't like it, complain to God. If someone, or a
business is being really neglectful in snow and ice
removal, ask them nicely to fix it, if they
don't, write a letter to the editor to complain. </DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>Except for disabled parking in government and private businesses,
people should just realize it snows, and if you are unsure footed like
me, you are probably going to fall. It is just the way it is, please
stop with endless complaining about snow in Idaho in the winter, it is
just a fact of life, love your neighbor, it isn't his/her fault, and let
us move on. </DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>Go buy a pair of boots with good traction, or stay
home. </DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>Best Regards,</DIV>

be some sort of effort to clean the sidewalks lining Highway 95 north of
Rosauer's and south of A & W? People are still walking in the highway.
There is also snow blocking parts or all of lanes in this area.
Combine the blocked lanes with lack of sidewalks, people walking in the
highway and heavy truck traffic, and you have a recipe for a major disaster.
Thank you,
