Me In Virginia Beach » City Waste http://meinvb.net My wanderings, in and around Virginia Beach, VA Tue, 29 Nov 2011 04:19:21 +0000 en hourly 1 http://wordpress.org/?v=3.3 Snow Clue http://meinvb.net/2010/02/02/snow-clue/ http://meinvb.net/2010/02/02/snow-clue/#comments Tue, 02 Feb 2010 23:35:39 +0000 MeInVB http://meinvb.net/?p=41 I find it very interesting, that with pending cuts in the coming months, that the city of Virginia Beach can’t find a better way to deploy manpower after the big snow storm, then to have close to a dozen workers cleaning the sidewalks of the municipal center on Sunday… I am guessing that these guys were most likely collecting overtime… I guess it’s somehow important, that the municipal center looks good no matter what the cost, while all the rest of the city looks like crap…

City Workers Cleaning sidewalks at municipal center

Meanwhile I have seen a grand total of 8 city snowplows on the roads, driving through the snow covered roads with their blades up… You would think that if the truck is moving, and there is snow on the road, the blade should be down clearing the roads… It is now 3 days since the storm hit, and the majority of main roads look like ass, and even worse at the intersections… You would think that a city truck with snowplow moving down snow covered primary road, that the blade would be down and snow would be getting cleared…

Guys make better use of your limited resources…
