Catonsville Residents Sound Off on Snowplowing

CATONSVILLE, MD—As of 8 a.m. Sunday the blizzard warning for Maryland has been lifted. Over the weekend, Winter Storm Jonas brought up to 32 inches of snow to towns across Baltimore County.

No travel ban was issued for Catonsville throughout the storm, but Governor Larry Hogan is still urging residents to stay off the roads while crews get to work.

We asked Patch readers in Catonsville how they felt about the plowing done on their block. Here’s what they said:

• “No, i live on williston between south chapel gate and beechfield. I drive a prius. The roads were plowed once yesterday.”
• “We haven’t been plowed at all! But I know it will take time.”
• “Too soon. We haven’t see a plow in our neighborhood, but I don’t expect one for a day or likely more.”
• “Only saw a plow Friday night, nothing since. We’re being patient.”
• “There are plows?? None in the Hilltop area yet.”
• “They never get Oella. Until the main roads are taken care of. That does. Make sense. Too much snow. Where do you.put it”
• “Haven’t been plowed, but we’re the dead-end part of a street (other part is one way), so I know we’re tertiary”
• “This snow hit the first place !!!
  This is the first day after snow. Major roads first then secondary then neighborhood roads. Maybe tomorrow guys or the next day. Neighbor’s unite that’s what we used to do in the past like in 1957, 1996, etc.”
• “I live on oglethorpe. Never have we been plowed. Guess the taxes I pay aren’t enough. We have to shovel out ourselves or pay a private plow person if we want to leave.”
• “ Instead just taking 10 minutes to do this dead end street we have to wait 2-3 days. I don’t get it.”
• “No. My husband works nights so he’s not home and they just plowed all the snow into the spot he cleared out. Instead of to somewhere else.”
