[quote=Oxygen-Supply;1572517]Blame this blame that,
1: Putting Salt down after -15 is a big waste, it wont work!, if the city put the Ice down when it is warm during the day, then it will all freeze at night, just in time for rush hour.
2: If the city clears off all the snow (ruts) down to the road, the Tax payers would be paying out the nose to have the roads repaved every few years. Chinooks wreak havoc on the roads by freezing and melting and repeating, this causes all the potholes in the spring. Imagine all the roads that would be torn up when a grader blade hits those cracks and pot holes.
3: I would love for my community roads to be cleared a few days after the snow fall. I would also love to add $300-400 to my tax bill.

: All the people with those Snow tires. YOU and your big treads are taking off all the gravel the city is putting down.
5: In Rush hour how is the city to clean the streets when everyone is going 20KM/Hour.
6: Hey cities like Edmonton can get all the snow off their streets before us. The population is similar to that of Calgary, but the city of Calgary has 30% more roads to keep clear and less Chinooks problems.
7: The last week it has been snowing every couple of days. So the city has to start all over again each time.
8: Calgary has long period between snow falls, keeping a big staff on payroll would be a big waste of money. Yes they can do other things when it is not snowing. But having 300 people doing odd jobs waiting for a snow fall seams like a big waste of tax payers dollars.
9: The bigger problem is this city is growing to fast and the roads were never designed for the traffic they have now, then add snow. All those years in the 90s when the mayor did not want to spend it is sure biting everyone in the butt now.
10: Why don’t all you complainers that like the snow removal better in other cities move their. Or if you think you can do a better job apply to be mayor or one any of these many jobs
