LETTERS TO THE EDITOR

To the editor: Why does the city of Leavenworth not clear the drains and the parking areas along Delaware Street when it snows? The drains were full of leaves, twigs and garbage, so the melting snow would pool up and create a small ice rink. As for snow removal, the last snow we had was wet and it did not melt quickly.
