Still Need the Plow

Still Need the Plow

Our Councilmember Brad Lander has sent the following to OEM, DSNY and the Mayor's Office:

While the plows have allegedly "hit" all streets according to the Mayor, most of the neighborhood of Kensington is inadequately plowed.  This is unacceptable!




Kensington must be addressed this afternoon.
My staff spent the morning walking around the neighborhood and most streets, including major E-W streets still have 3 inches of packed, uneven snow on them!  Pictures of Ditmas Ave, Ave C and E 8th street are attached as an example.
Streets that need attention are:

the major E-W streets of the neighborhood, most notably
Ave C
Ditmas
Cortelyou
Ave F
We have repeatedly pointed out to DSNY and OEM that these streets needed attention throughout the cleanup and they have not been addressed.


All N-S streets that are parallel to McDonald and Coney Island Ave (except Ocean parkway), which includes:E9, E8, E7, E6, E5, E4, & E3 (all from Caton to Ave F)
The one block of E2 (between Cortelyou & Ave C) that the vehicle described below is stuck at.

Please keep my office informed about what progress has been made.
