Letter to the Editor: Praise to our DPW

Dear Editor,
After a week of clean up of downed tree limbs from two ice storms, Clarkston DPW workers handled 10 inches of heavy, wet snow Friday night.
This snow is not easy to move. I know from blowing my driveway and front walk twice in about four hours that evening. Even heavy equipment is challenged by conditions like these. In the photo, the grader blade became overly packed with snow on the Robertson Court curve.
The guys had to manually shovel the concrete-like mass from under the chassis to free it. One of the advantages of living in our small village is our hard-working DPW.
Thank them when you see them!
Eric Haven
Clarkston Mayor
