December 24th plowing update

Word has it that plowing has started in the center and even though there was a lot of packed down snow, the plow was able to get through a good deal of it. I have one report that "bed rock is showing". :-)

Work is still in progress, but the
DPW thinks they'll have it done by weekend.

We're monitoring the progress and we'll discuss and recommend adjustments going forward from what we learn from each storm.

Thanks to everyone who supported the plowing with your generous contributions! We want to make sure we get good value and hopefully excellent results for our limited experimental budget this year.

Feel free to comment here if you have suggestions or observations you wish to share.

December 17, 2008 Plowing Status

Even though the town isn't obligated to plow the bikeway until there is 2 inches of snow, the town offered to plow the bikeway tonight, but given the conditions and the high probability of a major storm on Friday, we recommended that we save some of those generous donations for another snowy day and have it plowed after the next storm this weekend.
