5th Avenue from Grand Ave to the beachfront has been impassable for 2 days. Not
a plow in sight.
This is the worst snow response I have ever seen in 30 years here. And there

And the the funny thing is,the way the snow has drifted, it is really deep

The issue is not money... recall that the City has not had any problem spending
money it does not have for the past decade.
The problem is not having the skill set to deal with this. The two most

Did any of you ever try to plow 3-4 feet of snow - with cars stuck in the road?
Front end loaders are one of the only ones to start making a path.

I'm taking your question as facetious. Waiting until there is several feet
accumulated is ridiculous.
The proper process is to start sanding/salting when snowfall starts. Followed
by clearing during the storm so that accumulations on streets do not occur

I don't think the problem is about driving cars around. If people have an

I have to add though that it is not just Asbury- the whole shore area seems to

hours.

about it all the time. Maybe it's an eye
So what you're saying is, if someone has a job as a paramedic, heart surgeon or
air traffic controller, they should just stay home until city, county and state
governments mount an adequate response to the snow?
While I agree with your point about taking action instead of complaining, this

I think we live in a hypocritical culture. Some people are all for smaller
government but when it happens, and people feel the loss, they complain that
somethings wrong. I find this to be ridiculous.
