The December snow storm was one of the worst in the last 10 years. Gloucester City was just about shut down and if wasn\’t for the county trucks plowing the county roads like Market Street there would have been no movement at all.
I started shoveling about 12 noon on Saturday and again at 5 pm and one more time at 10 pm .Even though it was still snowing I wanted to try to keep it down so I did not have to shovel 20\” in the morning. On Sunday morning I went out at 8am and began the tremendous task of clearing the side walk first. We live in the 400 unit block of Market Street. I started with my neighbor’s house as he is suffering from cancer and unable to take care of snow removal. I shoveled all the way down to 5th Street then turned towards Powell and shoveled about 40ft of the sidewalk. Bear in mind the section of sidewalk on 5th Street and on Powell Street is city sidewalk as it borders a city owned parking lot.
