Winter Walking and Cycling

Dan pointed this out, but I need to chime in on what a terrible disingenuous presentation of the data.You're either lying or presenting yourself as incompetent when you say that 15% to 6% is reduction "by 9%".

So which is it? Are you lying or are you referencing data (which you don't bother to source, either) that you aren't able to understand?

oh man... neither Dan nor I are incorrect but let's put it another way to be clear.

Presently, for every 100 homes with a sidewalk, 15 aren't passable.  If we spend $10 million/yr we clear 9 of those 15... but 6 are still impassable.

The source is in the data in the staff report.

No need to be cruel, this is why people avoid engaging.

I do wish staff had released the raw data....because this oversimplies the situation.

It could be that 6 of 100 sidewalks are blocked....or it could be that on 6 of 100 days all sidewalks were blocked...

Given the functioning of plows, that's at least equally likely, the truth is probably somewhere in between, and given my experiences, far closer to every sidewalk being cleared most of the time.
