Winter snow removal contracting

The worst storm since 2016 froze solid after plowing, making cleanup unusually hard. The city spent about $39,000 on contractors, $6,000 clearing alleys and used 500 tons of salt — roughly double a normal storm. Complaints were modest and mostly about snow pushed into parking spaces.
