Snow removal crews are working constantly to try and deal with the amount of snow we have received. There is a steady humm of a diesel engine working in the background. Maintaining minimal building access is a major chore, let alone finding somewhere to put the excess snow. Stuck and snowed in vehicles make it impossible for crews to function efficiently, blocking off access for dumping snow. Henry Road remains a one lane gamble, with chainless enthusiasts losing their shirts everyday.
The poor access keeps garbage removal at a standstill, as piles continue to mount up around the dumpsters. Regular garbage removal would have been a challenge, not to mention the overflow of Christmas wrapping paper and boxes....few of which have been broken down (jab, jab). The access at Paradise Ridge is fair, but we are the only condo that is ready for pick up, and Viken Waste is unwilling to make the trip for just one condo. Hopefully by tomorrow snow removal will have punched enough access to waste bins to make it worth while.
Snow removal within PR is another story as well. The 2nd floor was hit with a huge sluff of roof avalanche that completely blocked access a few days ago. By climbing down from the 3rd floor I was able to shovel a single lane path, and shovel out doors buried above their door knobs. The plan is to have a crew show up tomorrow and use the remaining snow in the breezeway to barricade the 2nd floor from continued sluff. I am grateful for the patience and understanding of both renters and owners.
The Hot Tub lost a day of operation yesterday, as I needed to dig a 10ft pit with stairs in order to access the pump room and drain the water. It is bubbling away as of last night, ready for another throng of unshowered bathers ;).
