They're just getting worse and worse

From mtl Magazine via Facebook. Doc Murray has their number right!

Clik here to view.

You know, we get in a habit and we just can't let it go...please call 911 to report unshoveled sidewalks, not the former non-emergency number that is now disconnected (and we're not even going to repeat it here because someone will call it.) We forgot and put that old number in the Jan/Feb magazine. Sorry about that.

  • Doc Murray Ok. I am a life long Mt Lebanon resident. I maintained my residency during my time in the Marine Corps, Active time with the Army, and deployments. I have never once been cited for this.

    Why not encourage the residents of this community to look out for their neighbors and help them if there is sidewalk is not shield. Instead you are encouraging them to go tell on their neighbor. 

    What is the matter with people here now? We are neighbors in a community. Why would you encourage this on your neighbor? How many times has it been ths last thing on one's mind when there is a pile of laundry and sick kids on a snowy morning? How would the Mt Lebanon PD knocking on your door help you?

  • mtl -- Mt. Lebanon Magazine The ordinance does not exist to place a burden on anyone and we are not encouraging people to tell on their neighbors. The ordinance, which requires sidewalks to be cleared within 24 hours from the end of a snowstorm for residences, or for businesses within four hours between the hours of 7 a.m. and 10 p.m., is there to protect all people who must use the sidewalk, from letter carriers to people going to a medical appointment to kids walking to school. Certainly we encourage residents to help each other out, or if that's not possible, to hire someone to take care of it or to contact the school district to see if a volunteer can do it. That being said, keeping the sidewalks clear is a priority in a walking community such as ours. Here is the full article (for which the phone number was an error in the printed magazine).http://lebomag.com/15847/some-wintertime-reminders/  29 minutes ago · Edited · Like
  • Doc Murray I'm aware of the ordinance. Why not just encourage people to look out for each other first? That is what I am saying. It takes 30 second in the snow we have had lately, depending on the size of the property.
  • mtl -- Mt. Lebanon Magazine This post was just to correct the incorrect number. We do hope people will help each other when possible.
  • Doc Murray Hmmm, weak. Look, i get the article is already written. I get the intent. But you put in there how to report someone, and didn't ask people to help. That is all I'm saying.
  • mtl -- Mt. Lebanon Magazine Got it. Thanks for your thoughts. We'll make sure to make that point next time.
