[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I went out this morning along 14th St NW and it seems like the number of people parked in the massive snow banks or double parked on front of them are an impediment to coming through with heavy machinery.[/quote]

You're not wrong, but the large snow plows are no longer useful for streets where there are a lot of park cars. That's why they need to get all the smaller bobcats out. Dig out some actual parking spaces and then people will be able to park their cars safely and out of the flow of traffic. It's Sunday. Tomorrow's a workday, yet I have not seen any city action on my state-named Street today or in the alley where our trash is supposed to be collected, despite the mayors proclamations. I've cleared my steps the sidewalk in front of my house, and I've helped out with my neighbors and I've dug out my car which I refuse to move until I know I might have a space when I get back and I don't wanna be a dick and put out cones or chairs to save my spot. Come on, Mayor!  [/quote]

I've seen a few bobcat crews around with a few pieces of equipment like that. But how do they even work when there are cars parked within/in front of the lanes they need to clear?

Come on people, your yoga class isn't that important.[/quote]
