How frustrating! I’ll forward your comments to Public Works and ask them to look into this. Thanks and I’ll be in touch, Shirley.

In Mi Wuk Village, some of us try to rush out when we hear the plow so that maybe they won't push so much snow in front of our "just cleared" driveway. Last week, he came inches from hitting my husband. I was gone for 3 or 4 hours and couldn't get over the 3 or 4 foot pile of snow and had to park in the street while I trudged across the mound of snow to call someone to clear it. Now that was too dangerous leaving my car in the street. I don't know what the solution is, but I know that in some places they do not put snow in front of the driveways of permanent residents.

Hey Rick, Please call Public Works at 533-6533 and tell Carol the problem. I will contact Barry to let him know too – he's assured me he will look into these things as soon as he can get there. Realize that it's snowing and give him a little time to get to it. Please let me know when you have talked to him and what is the outcome.

Teri, well, if the snowplow guy is doing a 'great job' for Jim Johnson on Strauch Dr. He's really missing the boat on my property.
I live one house (further down the hill from Jim and across the street 23092 Stauch Dr-with two cars always parked in the drive-way) and he pushes the berm even higher now into the front of my property.
I to, have 'caught his eye' while actually shovleing the 1st berm he raised-but, he "looks me off" every time.
Jim Johnson and I are the only 3 full time (out of 26 homes) residents on this block of Strauch and one would think that the snowplow guy could drop the berm just about any place else but in front of my drive way…. Teri: this has gone on for the last 3 winters and this is the first time that I've complained….Help!!

Teri,
The snow plow guy this morning – 2/11-did an exceptional job in front of our home – Strauch Dr., Twain Harte. As he came down the hill he made an extra effort to push the "berm" past our driveway leaving it clear and easy to shovel. I was able to catch his eye and thank him. It was certainly appreciated. Your efforts to put a little customer service into this area is paying off.
Thank you,
Jim Johnson
