The city's winter management plan continues to be a work in progress. City councilors poked holes through the Commissioner of Municipal Operations' proposed snow-clearing plan last night. Among other things, Paul Groody is suggesting the city ban overnight on-street parking during the winter for most of the city. That means some uptown residents may have to park one street away from where they live. This has the ire up of councilor Donnie Snook who lives uptown.
Groody says the solution is adequate off-street parking. Groody says the city needs to significantly reduce the number of vehicles on the streets during snow storms if people want good quality service. He is also recommending council keep a contingency snow-clearing fund every year, and increase by-law enforcement against people dumping snow on sidewalks. Council has referred their questions about the plan to the city manager.
