snow plows came Sunday for the first snow, but I haven't seen any since. Cars have been getting stuck in front of my house. I drove around the Broadview neighborhood last night and lots of roads look like they haven't had a second pass through.
I forgot to mention in my original report, #200064, that I called management yesterday about this ongoing issue, and it’s yet to be taken care of. This is sassafras apartments, particularly in front of apts 39, 40, and 41.

Heirloom Drive is in desperate need of being plowed. The road is still snow covered 3 days after the snow storm, especially with the next snowfall approaching soon.
Parking Spots on patterson and prospect street that are owned by the city have still not been plowed, no one can park here
Ralston Drive has not been salted and plowed in days, or possibly at all. The street runs from Rogers to Rockport and both ends are very bad. It is the worst road we have had to travel on in town. It is difficult to get out of our own road and we are in city limits. If someone could please rectify this problem.
Trash collection was on Tuesday. It's Thursday and the cans are still out on Ballantine Rd. north of Hunter.
The path between weatherstone and hawthorne, part of the new Hawthorne-Weatherstone Greenway, has not been cleared of snow at all. Even worse, the plows pushed all the snow from Hawthorne into a huge pile blocking the Hawthorne end of the path, so that it is completely impassable. This is totally unacceptable treatment of brand new city infrastructure, which is intended to be a transportation route.
Blocked sidewalk and ice all over
First, I want to thank you for keeping up with the snow and ice removal over the last several days! I know the city has been extremely busy clearing the snow and ice, and I cannot overstate how much your efforts are appreciated! I do, however, want to alert you to an issue that I've noticed at several intersections/crosswalks in this area. I noticed this issue at both the intersections of Henderson & Atwater and Henderson & Smith (hence why I've chosen a location between the two). I've attached a picture of the intersection at Henderson & Smith [taken at around 10:20 this morning, facing East] to illustrate. These sidewalks have been cleared in one direction (generally toward campus), but the sidewalks that run East/West have been completely blocked off. The ends of these sidewalks are blocked by piles of snow and ice that are 2 or 3 feet tall - taller than the fire hydrants (see picture). This means that anyone who needs to use the sidewalk has to walk out into the road in order to cross the street, which puts both pedestrians and drivers at risk, especially when the rest of the street is covered in ice. Additionally, this is a HUGE accessibility issue - anyone who has mobility issues and/or uses mobility aids, has a service animal, or is similarly impacted by blocked sidewalks will be greatly impacted. These piles of snow will only get worse with the impending snowfall tomorrow, and these will be even more of an issue. Again, I completely understand how busy the city is, and I imagine you're getting similar complaints every couple of minutes. Clearing one sidewalk, however, should not be at the detriment of another. Thank you for your time and your efforts!
