Denver’s flexible snow plowing policy
Posted by Richard on February 23, 2019
When we get snow in Denver, the city generally plows only main streets (those with a yellow stripe down the middle). The official policy is that residential streets only get plowed when a foot or more of snow falls. Last night’s storm dumped only about half that in my neighborhood.
But this morning, either my block experienced about a week’s worth of traffic or a plow came through. I’m pretty sure it was the latter. So what gives? Why the deviation from policy?
Oh, that’s right. The mayor is up for reelection this spring. Ain’t politics grand?
