Glad they’re doing something! Their response to our January snow was a complete fail.
Just like Hogsett – a complete fail. Worst mayor in the history of our city.
According to the city’s ordinance, “…property owners are required to clear a five-foot-wide path along all sidewalks. Importantly, when shoveling, snow should not be placed onto public roadways or block alleys; instead, it should be deposited in yards or medians. Failure to comply with these regulations can result in fines of up to $50” . How about another reform… DON’T plow snow onto the sidewalks AFTER we shovel them off so people can walk on them. It happens every time there is a significant snowfall and then it’s almost impossible to clean again due to a mountain of slush or ice. People are then forced to walk in the street. We should individually be permitted to fine the city $50 every time this happens.
Prioritizing (unused) bike lanes in a snowstorm – go figure
People use bike lanes and trails all the time. Not everyone has a car. Maybe leave your subdivision and go downtown to the Old Spaghetti Factory and you’ll see people riding bikes.
For years now, our neighborhood association has paid for our neighborhood streets to be plowed. I have lived in my neighborhood for 29 1/2 years, and DPW has never once plowed the streets within our neighborhood. We hired plowing for the January snowstorm, and our streets were good to go. The streets in the neighborhoods next to us were nearly impassable.
The city of Indianapolis and DPW should be responsible for plowing the neighborhood streets as well as the main thoroughfares. By virtue of the taxes we pay, we the people own the streets, and the city and DPW work for us. Get his policy in place immediately. Our neighbors should not have to spend additional dollars out of pocket over and above our tax levies to plow the neighborhood streets that are already the municipal responsibility. GET THIS DONE!
they didn’t even do a good job on the main roads. there is no way they will plow all the side streets.
The horse is out. Now we close the barn door. What about the potholes?
