I love when it snows right on top of the leaves, right now the village is probably three weeks behind in schedule. What happens if this is going to be a foot of snow? I guess I’ll be doing leaves in this spring time. This is why the town should’ve been working every Saturday from the beginning period like other towns why is every year for the past 30 years there’s a problem. Not enough equipment, not enough employees, not enough money in overtime budget, it’s ridiculous. Everyone knows you can’t work too late during the week because my 5 o’clock, it’s black out Work some days. I do know that the leaf grow worked a few Sundays about 10 years ago, and it was very successful. But unfortunately, the village lost a lot of experience,
Fortunately for us, you obviously don’t live in Ridgewood.
That’s it for lead pickup. Happens almost every year. When they don’t finish by the first snowfall they call it quits.
Another big screw up, this is what happens when you don’t do proper planning. They’re lucky that only a few inches of snow is coming. What happens if this is going to be a a blizzard. You’ll be doing Snow for a long period of time and then you’ll be doing leaves in the spring.
Let it snow let it snow let it snow, I Presley don’t care because I paid the Landscaper to take care of all my properties in the village. And pick them up totally removed. No leaves in front of my house. See ya.
Surprised they modified the proposed schedule, everywhere I went in town early last week the streets were all cleared of all leaves. Then started noticing a limited number of streets where landscapers did one more (un-necessary) clean-up and more leaves in the street.
