A good portion of our snow clearing budget is car infrastructure. Meanwhile, pedestrians cyclists, and those using wheelchairs or other mobility devices cannot get around.
Seriously questioning #OttCity’s decision to send its winter maintenance funds to expensive, laborious snow-hauling just so a handful of drivers can park their private property on City land—even though streets are safer with it—instead of clearing basic infrastructure so people can get around.
