This morning we're confronted with the continued legacy of KCMO infrastructure disappointment and a peek at the "new normal" given fewer resources for basic services in the aftermath of the COVID-19 economic depression for small biz.
To wit . . .
KANSAS CITY SNOW REMOVAL HAS BEEN ABYSMAL DESPITE LESS THAN FIVE INCHES OF SNOW!!!
Unfortunately, most ladies scoff at less than five inches (Or so I've heard. 😏) but the pile up has brought this town to a virtual standstill.
Neighborhood streets will have to wait for a melt for better access and only a few main road are getting any reliable clearing.
Local newsies don't realize that so many of the stats they're being fed are fake given that city & contracted trucks regularly drive around with their plows up just to clock miles for their shift.
For KCMO residents, a simple look outside will confirm this report and spark fear of upcoming budget woes that will degrade city services even further.

With this on top of covid, I've noticed that it's eerily quiet this morning. That's not a good sing for a city that usually does a lot of business for the holidays.
ReplyDeleteGuess that's the future for KC. People locked up like prisoners.
Not gloating but you' know that streets in JoCo are pristine.
DeleteNot just main thoroughfares but some of the neighborhood streets, too. Maybe spending money on snow removal and now streetcars and tourists traps actually does have a benefit. KC voters should think about that in the future.

KCMO never cleans off the snow and ice.
ReplyDeleteWhat in the hell DOES KCMO spend taxpayer dollars for ?
Trash everywhere, shitty water, broken sewage mains, potholed streets and yet the City has a 1% earnings tax and a 12% sales tax plus all of the Federal money it receives.
Speaking of water, anybody else’s water taste like metal or something? It’s been bad for two months now, I called the city and got the usual run around after being on hold for ten minutes. I’ve never seen a city run as poorly as this one has the past few years.
ReplyDeleteIn 10 years, after you die from it, they will tell us what was in the water.

ReplyDeleteSee! I told you so!
Any of you geriatric fucktards been out of your trailers in Frogville this month? It’s not bad at all. I saw several plows working yesterday. Roads weren’t bad at all. Sorry to burn your narrative. These fucktards on here never go anywhere, do they’re subjective to your propaganda Tony. The people who matter here know the truth.
ReplyDelete@9:31 Delusions of grandeur. Its a mental disorder that can be treated
DeleteNorth of the River we received the snow removal we have come to expect from KCMO.
ReplyDeleteDuring the height of the snowfall yesterday morning, a City Truck blew down our residential street at about 40mph (25 speed limit), with the blade of the plow raised 4-5 inches off the ground. Sure enough the City's GPS mapping shows our street as "cleared".
But, over the years we've learned to expect no City Services in the Northland except for Tax Collections.
Oh boy! Fresh meat to keep the geriatric shut-ins engaged! “The streets are so bad!” Bitch please, roads are fine. If these fucktards ever left the rest home, they would know.
ReplyDelete^^^^ 9:31 and 9:44 are the same person. Get some help
DeleteI wouldn't mind if the city picked up the trash put out for Thursday.
ReplyDelete.^^OK Boomer. Hey look, Matlock’s on!
ReplyDeleteThe snow route I live on is fine. If you're wondering where the plows were, they were doing my street at least 5 times on their way back to the salt shed.
ReplyDelete^^^ what channel? Matlock is a pretty good show, I remember watching it with my grandpa when I was a kid!

ReplyDelete9:44 doesn't work so he doesn't know how shitty snow and ice removal is in KCMO when we are making our daily work commute.
Once you hit state line road in Johnson County, the roads are miraculously cleared off.
If you live in your mother's basement like 9:44 and Joe Biden; you don't have a clue what is going on in the real world; only the little voices in his head.
9:44 may be a quadriplegic that communicates by blowing in a straw
Delete10:14 do you live on prospect! Trucks run that street 24/7
ReplyDeleteThe damn streets are fine. What a bunch of howler monkeys you all are. Maybe get out and see for yourselves. Jesus, TKC CHUDS are the absolute worst!
ReplyDeleteA small pickup truck came through my neighborhood yesterday morning when the snow was about an inch deep, an hour later you couldn’t tell he came through, I live on a hill so nobody on our street can get out until it pretty much melts or they come through and plow and put salt down. We’ve complained about this already to no avail.
ReplyDeleteI’ve lived in my neighborhood in the real east side for 25 years and it’s the same old shit with city hall and fucking up snow removal anywhere east of Cleveland. We know what’s going on with the crews, they get in the plows and go to their homes first, plow and salt their streets until it’s covered in salt and then maybe they’ll get to their assigned neighborhoods.
I was told once that prospect as an example (water dept plows at 18th and Brooklyn) always was clear because the crews would use up their salt going to their areas to plow so they would run out of salt faster and could come back to the shop and sit on their ass the rest of the day.
Whaaa!!!! The streets are sooo bad!!!! Ehaaa!! Sure, I don’t really know because I don’t go anywhere but whaaa!!! My street still has snow on it, I mean it was plowed, but it’s not completely clear whaaa!!! I mean I know it’s below freezing, so it won’t melt all the way to the pavement, but whaaaa!!!!!!! But my streets! Whaaaa!!!!
ReplyDelete10:22 yea yea yea, we know the bus routes are good, the rest of the city is fucked got it?
ReplyDelete10:29 shut up gopher boi, we all know your street off of state-line is perfectly clear, now go to city hall or that Lawrence bar that your boss baldy mcdrinkerson is at and shine his shoes, now bitch now!
ReplyDeleteAll you white folks do is complain, complain, complain.
ReplyDelete^^ At least we don't kill, kill, kill - like some "people" do!
ReplyDelete^^^ FTW! HAHAHAHAHA!
ReplyDeleteThe list of things black people don't complain about...
ReplyDelete1. Black on black murder and crime.
2. That’s it! Lmao!
Ole Black Karen bam ba lam Ole Black Karen bam ba lam.
DeleteLeave the snow, it will melt in a couple days. Saves the city money and makes it easier to spot the bodies.
ReplyDeleteAll the money for city snow removal was spent on the BLM street murals and jazzing up the Jazz District so you can go there and get robbed in a nicer atmosphere.
ReplyDeleteVote Yes on the Earnings Tax renewal, so we can keep spending tax money on entertainment districts, convention centers, convention hotels, parking garages for luxury condos and apartments, toy trains, stadiums and subsidize underperforming TIF's.
ReplyDeleteI have to take it back, the snow plow just came back through my neighborhood, I am shocked.
ReplyDeleteNow if we can get the guy that plowed my neighborhood to straighten out his plow so he doesn’t bury the neighbors on the other side of the street. They go straight down the middle of the street and all the snow goes to one side and it gets deep, we don’t have cars on the street in my neighborhood so you’d think it would be a no brainer but hey, at least they came back through!
^^^ I’m sure it was an accident!
ReplyDeleteHow 'bout putting snow blades on the Toy Train??
ReplyDeleteYou're welcome.
All the unemployed can shovel snow, earn their stimulus check. Be productive.
ReplyDeleteAre BLM and ANTIFA protesters out shoveling the walks of elderly, black residents so they can get out ?
ReplyDeleteDidn't think so.
That would require charity and work versus screaming, spitting and setting property on fire.
All you crackers do is complain
ReplyDelete"All the unemployed can shovel snow, earn their stimulus check. Be productive."
ReplyDeleteUmmmm. Since the stimulus check will be going to everyone, employed or unemployed, who makes under $75K, shouldn't everyone who qualifies get out and shovel snow? In other words, get your lazy knee-jerk cracker ass off the computer and shovel some snow, shit-for-brains.
^^^ha ha ha ha. You just knocked the fuck out of the Worthless TKC geezers!
ReplyDeleteThinking about putting down a trail of fried chicken and ribs to my neighborhood. I'm sure we'd be overrun with City plow trucks in no time.
