How Well Does Your City Plow Roads?
After a good snowfall, citizens always have something to say—good or bad—about the job the city and county does with plowing. So what do you think?
In the little town of Richfield, when two or more inches of snow falls the city's plows hit the roads.
Or do they?
While I was perusing the City of Richfield's Facebook page last week, I stumbled upon a lively comment accusing the city of a sub-par plowing performance.

"Seriously if this is what the City calls cleaning up our streets they ought to be ashamed of themselves," the citizen wrote.

This reminded me of a post I received on Richfield Patch's Facebook page Jan. 28.
"Plows? No plows in site in our neighborhood," Derek Brown wrote. "I hope they come and cleanup the slush before tomorrow night or we will have several inches of ice!"
I've personally never given much thought to this until now. (As Sunday dumped a few heavy inches on us all in the Twin Cities metro area.)
So, Patch has to ask: How would you rate your city in the plowing department? Good? Bad? Ugly? Tell us in the comments section below.
