I think the "snow sample" requirement was the icing on the cake! Happy April Fool's Day! But seriously, it think it's worse that we all actually believe it could be true!

The money then get allocated to those who have over spent. I use to work for the City and every year we had to make sure we make our budget and would go on a spending fury at the end of the fiscal year so we didn't lose any of our budget for the next year. The refund to those who did not receive adaquate snow removal I think can escalate to people just wanting the 50.00. I think the city council should be more concerned with lowering our tax increase then trying to give the budget away.

I think that you should also have to prove that you didn't use any of the other roads in the city. The guys doing the plowing did the best they could with an extraordinary situation.
