  1. they don’t call out the d p w any more. who is doing the work for them now. I called and no one came out. is the police and fire dept’s the only one out. can some one say to us the tax people of the village on why, and what the hell is going on in this village. the mayor and council need to start waking up. and do not come up with some bull shit story we are saving money on not calling out dpw workers. because that’s bull shit. it don’t look good. I’am in town for over 30 plus years and they allways are around in a storm.
