Mayor Brent Taylor on snow plow survey results:

 “A few weeks ago, I asked for your feedback on how the snow plowing has gone this winter. We got 125 responses, and appreciate those who took the time to participate. Most citizens were satisfied with the plowing. We also received dozens of typed responses of specific feedback or concerns, which are too many and too long to post here. But please know that we are reviewing each comment and will be addressing what changes should be made to make our excellent service even better in future snow storms this winter and in future winters. We have excellent employees who do a great job and we are always seeking to improve.”
