Letters/Upset With City Highway Department Job Performance

At 8:00AM this morning (Friday) Monmouth Street, Johnson Blvd., and probably all other streets in Gloucester City were still covered with ice.

As we all know Monmouth Street is a main roadway for our Fire Department and Rescue/Ambulance Service.

With today\’s frequent and multimulti-day forecasting, the City\’s salt trucks should have been prepared and out on the streets Tuesday night and all day Wednesday.

I saw trucks driving around on Wednesday of this week, but no staff members were putting any salt down or removing any ice. If our present Streets Department employees are not willing to accept their responsibilities and carry out their job descriptions, they should be dismissed for insubordination.

Hire new staff members that will be thankful to have such a job and will execute their responsibilities in keeping our streets clear and safe!

Here it is Friday evening and many cars in our City are still iced in at the curb. With the sun shining again and the temperature rising, get the job done! Clear our streets . If you don\’t want to work hand in your resignation.

signed STILL ICED IN!
