[RP TownTalk] 47th Ave

[McDougall, Sherene (Law)]

I have to agree with Andrew.  I live on 45th place between Sheridan and
E/W highway, after digging out a path yesterday afternoon around 3:30 a
snow plow squeezed its way down our street we tried to tell the driver
to push the snow that was sitting in the parking spots more to the curb
so as to widen the path that we had dug out, the driver was very nervous
said the plow was not operating properly and left, he didn't do
anything, we weren't asking him to move the high mounds as that was too
heavy for his plow just to push aside the soft stuff, he couldn't, so
the street didn't get plowed. Whatever snow was cleared was cleared by
who lived on the street.  This morning as I was leaving for work another
plow came through but he just put some salt down he said this was his
first time pushing snow.  Many of the snow plow operators do not have
any experience with snow and it seems they are intimidated by it.  I
know for sure the driver who came through our street yesterday was, he
admitted he didn't know what he was doing, even though my husband tried
to direct him.  Thank you.

Jeffrey-

Do you live on 47th Ave? Thought so. Unless you have witnessed, you can
not speculate to the residents of 47th Ave.

I do not appreciate your condescending remarks and off base responses. I
did witness the plow turn around. 
 
You're right maybe the plow driver was called home because his child
suddenly caught a fatal illness, however. As I stated in the original
email I was just pointing out that the street had yet to be plowed.

"blatantly stopped"

Blatantly? How do you know this? By your observation?

How do you know that the driver did not receive a call from his boss
redirecting him to some other area for an emergency situation? Or that
his wife/her husband called to say their child had become seriously
ill and that he or she was needed elsewhere immediately?

The word blatantly suggests some sinister plot against Andrew Waldo
and the residents on 47th Avenue. Or, perhaps blatantly is not the
correct word?

Perhaps you have been holed up to long in the house...

plowed. I understand that it's taking a while to reach all the streets,
however the snow plow plowed every street in the neighbor hood but
blatantly stopped at the bottom of our street and left. The residents on
47th need to be plowed out just as much as everyone else.
