St. Paul needs to start ticketing and towing vehicles when a snow emergency is declared.

St. Paul roads are a complete joke. I live on a plow rout and we are still one of the very last to be plowed out

The city needs to plow our streets better and that includes alley. We paid so much taxes and my alley never gets plow. What’s the point of charging us taxes for that?

The plowing the pot holes, the alley maintenance, the horrific sidewalk conditions... I don't mind paying taxes however I am not seeing ANYTHING for it.

There are commonly up to 10 cars parked on our street during any given snow emergency. Seldom do they receive tickets. Aggressive ticketing would help ease the financial burden of plowing.

St. Paul schools should not have to be closed because roads are not cleared of the snow, and when you wait until more than 3 inches have fallen the snow on the roads turn into ice. We are paying taxes , do your job. Also when you finally do plow put the blade down!

We pay high property taxes in highland and can't even drive down our road 2 days after a snow fall. Please fix!

St. Paul needs to adopt a more proactive approach to snow removal. The current system is not sufficient and tax payers are not getting their moneys worth,

They really need to plow sooner and closer to the curbs. We lose a good 5' of width on the streets because of it. Then they also leave mounds of snow in the middle of intersections we have to drive through. At least follow behind with a small plow to clean those intersections up and get closer to the curb. It's like night and day when you cross into Roseville where they plow curb to curb and down to the pavement.

In addition, all busy intersections should be salted and /or sanded. It is very dangerous to make turns on slippery streets.

St. Paul could actually drop the blade on the plows to remove snow instead of leveling it off.

Instead of continuing to use a broken system or plan. Revisit the issue and actually hear what your community is saying.

On the east side it can take up to 5 days for our street to get plowed if they do it.

Not only do we not see plows here on the east side we also dont get pot holes bigger than a large water melon filled.

My car is still getting stuck in my “plowed” on-street parking area, and also at intersections where plows left ridges of snow. Plow drivers must have too much to do, since they rush through and don’t do a thorough job. I live on a side street that is busy, near a high school. We truly need more plows out, much sooner, to deal with the reality of St. Paul winter.

The services that the city provides is not equal to the amount of taxes that residents pay.

It shouldn’t take 3 full days after a snow storm for the streets to be cleared.
