It has been a terrible fall/winter for public works.

Leaves fell late and snow came early. People threw a fit there leaves weren’t picked up. We have 5 leaf crews. Those trucks are also snow plows which means a change over in equipment every time it snows. It will take another month to get caught up on leaves here, and that is if it doesn’t snow.
Be patient.

Luckily, I don't depend on these pickups

But I get the challenge for whoever agrees to do the leaves pickup. What amuses me is that it's the same outrage every year despite the same thing happening every year. You'd think after a while the town would try to figure out a more appropriate solution and/or people would stop depending on something that has always been a problem every year (and that is regardless of trying to assign blame out to Mother Nature and/or public works).
