Can anyone tell me why our street never gets plowed? All streets around us but not ours. It’s a nasty slushy mess in front but on sides, crossroads are all clean. We pay our taxes, we pay our city bills they stick us with but they can’t be bothered to plow our street. Happens all the time, but this time we won’t be left with a ice street at least.
