I believe I have the explanation demanded by the Sunday letter writer regarding what he saw as a poor response to the removal of snow and ice during our recent snowstorms:

B ecause

U sers

D on’t

G enerate

E nough

T axes

C ausing

U nfortunate

T raffic

S ituations

Despite rising costs, we have voted to reduce or not increase our taxes. While that is our right, we also should realize that we shouldn’t expect the same level of service from the jurisdictions providing those services.
