  5. I don't normally agree with old fella or whatever he is calling himself these days, but I do in this case. Probably every city that receives snow in the world plows in driveways. How else would they ever be able to clean the street off if they had to spend a couple of extra minutes scooping out the ends of driveways at 1100 properties plus the loss of momentum going down the street?

    Something I've discovered which may help those of you that are frustrated, is that there isn't a plow driver in the world that won't stop and do an extra swipe to clear out the end of your driveway for $5 - $10 bucks.

    Admittedly I have never attempted this in Sac City, but plow drivers are corruptible everywhere else I have ever lived. :)

    All of that said, I do find it kind of hilarious that the maintenance department is primarily worried about what the streets look like during the winter, but then mysteriously stop caring what the streets look like in front of our retail district when the snow stops...

  6. I give a bottle of whiskey to the boys every year and they take care of the end of my driveway. Gotta know how to grease the palms folks, food and/or liquor.

  7. I always have a big mountain to plow through with my car after they clean the street over on park ave because they have blocked my driveway. My driveway was clean by the man that does it and why do I still have to go through a 2 foot barracade to get to the street to go to work.
