1 of 3 possible reasons in my mind
1. The City doesn't have the budget or will to be on time with snow removal and you should expect this all winter.
2. The timing of this snow (Mid-October) isn't condusive to having all the resources necessary for snow removal, whether that be enough sand, salt, equipment ready, or people ready.
or
3. For some assinine reason (Druh Farrell/Brian Pincott Style Environmentalism) the city doesn't believe in road salt anymore. In my mind if the roads had be ploughed and salted accordingly yesterday the more recent accumulation wouldn't be that bad. It's only -4 out, a Liberal helping of salt would save lives and improve commute times on our roads. Clearly this was not done.
