Description
We have now missed 2 weeks of trash removal because there is so much snow on the street piled on either side of sidewalk there is absolutely no place to put the garbage cans without blocking the sidewalk or the driveways. Is there a plan to remove snow on this street sometime? Last year after the big storm a backhoe came in and removed all the excess snow piled up. Haven't seen them except in front of the school this year.

I feel your pain since my narrow street has had nowhere to put out trash barrels for almost a month. However, the plan we're undertaking is to use the orange bags, and place them on top of the huge mountains of snow for collection. As you know, DPW has been pushed to the limit day in and day out. There has been snow removal occurring in the City, but I don't know the plans for Crescent. Crescent is way bigger than my street, so you have that in your favor.

My tiny street went with the orange bags last week. On top of every snow pile down the whole street, it was just a sea of orange bags, and Russell took them all. You're right, Russell isn't going to take cans off the sidewalk (where they'd be blocking pedestrians). I think you're going to have to dig out a spot in a snow pile for barrels, or go with the orange bags.
