What’s the excuse this time for not plowing? It’s going to freeze over and gonna be 100 X worse. New hampshire is a County Road and was plowed why not township roads???

Gotta revamp public works. Where is our $100,000,000 tax dollars going? Ok so $60,000,000 going to public school, where is the other 40. We should get a published detailed receipt for all expenses every January for the past year showing exactly how are tax dollars were wasted.

It is outrageous that the roads were not touched today, leaving very dangerous roads and travel. Unacceptable.

If Raintree freezes tonight, we’re in big trouble. Our streets look like a slushy lake, not a road. We could use a boat. Don’t see how anyone will be able to get out. So far they (PWD) have always done a fantastic job. I’m not complaining, just saying. Maybe the warm weather today will help.

Completely outrageous!! The worst is the intersection where you can’t stop at the stop sign and if you do, your tires spin before your on the way again.

the plows ran away and will return when all the puddles freeze over to create nice sheets of ice

Maybe DPW knew what they were doing,10:00 my street was slush, 12:00 wet. Later dry, guess DPW’s knew there would be enough traffic out to melt the mess, if the roads were as bad as people say then stay off them until safe to drive on. Had no problem when I went out.
