Shazaaam

Funny how things happen.  Several months of enduring a garbage ridden home on Pleasant Ford...a chiding post on a blog, pointed emails to two aldermen...shazaaam, problem resolved.

More recently, a post on a blog pointing out an unlicensed, no City sticker, pickup truck in the right of way on West Side Drive...the bed filled with yard waste... persisting for months.  An email to two aldermen complaining of inaction on their part and shazaaam...truck removed.

City wide cleanup of right of ways is today.  Know of a problem that needs to be "cleaned up" in the City?  Be my guest.

P.S.  I spoke/wrote too soon.  The white truck reappeared yesterday without the load of sticks in the back and still without plate or sticker...and edging closer to the road.  I have emailed both aldermen and gotten bascially a ho-hum back from both...oh well.

The Germans had a great system for enforcing these kinds of things and making sure peoples papers (stickers?) were in order.

Oh yeah, forgot to add, seems like they made people wear identification bracelets at one point too...
