    Default Street Cleaning 2019

    Just got my street in front of my house street cleaned.
    Guess my high tax bill gives me preferential treatment.

    Swapping off my winter tires time.

    Schedule check:

    They were on Mcleod the other day. I think the operator forgot to push a button, all the sweeper did was spread the gravel all over the lanes.
    Too loud for Aspen

    I hope they do a better job this year as I found they did an awful job in the NW last year. There seems to be some disconnect between who's cleaning what at some major intersections as some just go straight through without going around cement dividers leaving unswept areas that they must think the guy doing the other direction is going to finish but he doesn't either leaving areas not swept. I have also seen where they just abruptly stopped in some areas and never came back.

    Hopefully everything is cleaned up sooner than later, I’m removing all the PPF on my car to have it redone and don’t really want to drive it until it’s either replaced or the roads are clear.

    The pre-did our neighborhood once already, now the signs are up for the real deal to happen on the 3rd.

    Listed for the 7th, but it doesn't matter much as nobody will move their cars off the street anyway.

    Maybe fining and towing people into oblivion will fix the giant revenue hole in the budget

    Yeah same with my circle. There's a few people that will leave their vehicles on the street despite having an empty driveway. So annoying. I know the city says they ticket cars I have never, ever seen it happen in my circle. You think they would send parking guys with the crews as it would be easy money for the city. IMO it seems like the city really doesn't want to fine people that don't move their cars.

    Yet they do on snow routes during the parking ban, I don't get why they don't do both.

    One is safety, the other is just cleaning.

    But I agree, bug rather than a normal ticket, it should be a tow so the crew and finish their work.

    So a fleet of tow trucks should follow the cleaning crew.
