There are too many streets in East Rock where the odd sides were NEVER PLOWED and a number of streets, especially Lawrence, is essentially a one-way road due to cars parking with the ice/snow and two cars not being able to fit through the street at the same time. Why did the city just skip East Rock?

The city should have not made promises they couldn't keep. Going through neighborhoods on bullhorns proclaiming snow removal 2morrow and waking people out of their sleep then never having the plows show is just plain bad management of resources and helps perpetuate non-complaince of these ridiculously semi-enforced "parking bans"
Just do it.
Please call your Alders to have a snow plan implemented by next winter. We need a written directive.

I guess the Mayor hasn't been over to the East Rock area in the last few days. Many of the streets show little, or no improvement. On our block of Linden Street (between Orange and Livingston), you couldn't even tell on Saturday morning that any plowing had been done since there were still huge mounds of snow at several locations and there was no place it was plowed to the curb on the odd-numbered side. This is the reward for everyone who followed instructions and kept their cars off that side of the street for five or six days? When we came home late last night, cars were again parked on both sides and it appears unlikely that a fire truck --or a snow plow -- could get through. Oh yes, Linden Street was not designated a "narrow street" worthy of plowing on both sides, even though it is about the same width (and much narrower on the section between Foster and Orange) as our neighboring streets, Avon and Cottage, both of which received the magical designation that might result in emergency vehicles being able to get through.
Although I don't think this adminsitration is any more incompetent than the 20-year reign of the former Mayor for Life, it certainly hasn't been impressive in its first two months, and it's quite a disappointment. Seems like deja vu, all over again.
I invite the Mayor and the Public Works director to come to this neighborhood and assure themselves that the job has been done.
