Description

From #77 to approximately #137 Abbe Lane, both sides of the street are covered with many downed trees from the recent snow storm. Most trees & debris obstructs the flow of traffic - I'm tired of driving over trees and scratching the paint on my car because the DPW is lazy! And I say lazy because DPW was already on this street a few days ago.... they cleaned up about the first quarter of the way down the street from Van Houten Avenue & then left, never to return.

It is not fair that my neighbors & I must drive over/ through these downed tree branches and ruin the finish on our cars – it’s like driving through an obstacle course made up of large piles of felled branches & residents’ cars!! The downed tree limbs create limited visibility for drivers, especially those who do not own an SUV, like myself. It’s an unsafe condition and should have been cleaned up by now, seeing that DPW had cleared the first 25% of the length of this street already.

Get with the program, Clifton DPW! Do something about this, Mr. New Over-paid City Manager! If I was being paid what you were being paid, I’d be out there personally working alongside DPW cleaning – God forbid you get your hands/ pretty suits dirty. Clean up 100% of streets and not just what you feel like doing for the hour or two each day you work.

Thank you.
