Amen.
Quoted: Common sense dictates that you have a plan for freakish emergencies, even those that happen only once every decade.
...
In this case, three things:
...
1. Use salt to melt ice when it risks crippling the city for days
2. Close off streets that are impassable with police and official sign barricades
3. Hire private contractors to help with the plowing efforts
...
These measures will not cost hundreds of millions. They should not impact the environment to any significant degree if only used every decade or so.

Yeah, I'm in complete agreement.
I saw Nichols on TV who gave the city a "B" for it's snow response efforts. I think a "D" or and "F" is more like it. The city has been a mess well beyond the time needed to properly plow the major streets in town. It was like driving on washboards with lots of impassible streets downtown.
Yeah, I agree with this guy.
