00:00:00.520 --> 00:00:06.799
<v Speaker 1>It's Nightside with Dan raybs Costin's video.

2
00:00:06.719 --> 00:00:08.279
<v Speaker 2>The byther Way. For those of you who are not

3
00:00:08.519 --> 00:00:12.439
<v Speaker 2>watching the the Four Nations Final, I'll give you an

4
00:00:12.519 --> 00:00:16.359
<v Speaker 2>updated score is one one at the end of the

5
00:00:16.359 --> 00:00:20.239
<v Speaker 2>first period. So if you're watching the game, just keep

6
00:00:20.280 --> 00:00:22.519
<v Speaker 2>the audio down. You can sit, you can stay with

7
00:00:22.600 --> 00:00:26.079
<v Speaker 2>us here on Nightside. I want to talk this hour

8
00:00:26.199 --> 00:00:29.800
<v Speaker 2>and I will look. I am looking for people to

9
00:00:29.920 --> 00:00:32.719
<v Speaker 2>chime in here. I want to focus on the city

10
00:00:32.719 --> 00:00:35.799
<v Speaker 2>of Somerville, Massachusetts. Those of you who live in the

11
00:00:35.799 --> 00:00:41.039
<v Speaker 2>Boston area know Somerville kind of the contiguous to Cambridge,

12
00:00:41.640 --> 00:00:47.000
<v Speaker 2>a little contiguous I think, to Charlestown and Medford. It's

13
00:00:47.399 --> 00:00:50.600
<v Speaker 2>it's kind of it's it's a suburb of Boston, sort

14
00:00:50.600 --> 00:00:54.119
<v Speaker 2>of almost an extension of the city. But they have

15
00:00:54.159 --> 00:01:00.840
<v Speaker 2>a pretty aggressive snow removal program in Somerville. Now, the

16
00:01:00.960 --> 00:01:04.840
<v Speaker 2>last two winters are here in Boston or in New England,

17
00:01:05.439 --> 00:01:09.040
<v Speaker 2>snow hasn't been much of a problem certainly, let us

18
00:01:09.079 --> 00:01:14.159
<v Speaker 2>say Massachusetts southwards. It always snows in Vermont and Maine.

19
00:01:14.200 --> 00:01:17.000
<v Speaker 2>In New Hampshire it seems. But we've got hit with

20
00:01:17.079 --> 00:01:20.719
<v Speaker 2>some pretty big snowstorms in the low not huge, but

21
00:01:21.719 --> 00:01:27.200
<v Speaker 2>significant snow and we've started off with a very very

22
00:01:27.239 --> 00:01:30.519
<v Speaker 2>cold month of February. So what has happened is we've

23
00:01:30.560 --> 00:01:35.359
<v Speaker 2>had this set of circumstances where we get maybe a

24
00:01:35.480 --> 00:01:40.560
<v Speaker 2>rainstorm turns to ice, maybe there's some sleet involved. Then

25
00:01:40.640 --> 00:01:43.799
<v Speaker 2>there's a snowstorm. It freezes real quickly if you don't

26
00:01:43.799 --> 00:01:47.400
<v Speaker 2>get out and get it right away, and then there's

27
00:01:47.400 --> 00:01:51.280
<v Speaker 2>some rain. And it's been below thirty two for several

28
00:01:51.359 --> 00:01:53.879
<v Speaker 2>days in a row. I mean it's and it's been

29
00:01:53.959 --> 00:01:57.480
<v Speaker 2>below zero on wind chew factor. I mean, it has

30
00:01:57.519 --> 00:02:03.400
<v Speaker 2>been a really nasty, nasty last few weeks since sometime

31
00:02:03.519 --> 00:02:07.439
<v Speaker 2>in I guess late January. It's not to the level

32
00:02:07.640 --> 00:02:12.280
<v Speaker 2>of the winter of twenty fifteen January of ten years ago,

33
00:02:13.199 --> 00:02:16.599
<v Speaker 2>when it just snowed tremendous amounts I mean eight I

34
00:02:16.639 --> 00:02:19.639
<v Speaker 2>think it was eighty inches in February and one hundred

35
00:02:19.680 --> 00:02:22.960
<v Speaker 2>and twenty inches in the last half of January and

36
00:02:23.280 --> 00:02:26.439
<v Speaker 2>through February into March. But no, I got a beef.

37
00:02:26.599 --> 00:02:30.719
<v Speaker 2>My beef is with the City of Summerville because apparently,

38
00:02:30.719 --> 00:02:35.479
<v Speaker 2>according to a whole bunch of reports that I have

39
00:02:35.639 --> 00:02:39.520
<v Speaker 2>seen the last few days, the City of Summerville has

40
00:02:39.639 --> 00:02:44.960
<v Speaker 2>gotten really aggressive with their own residents. So if you

41
00:02:45.120 --> 00:02:47.840
<v Speaker 2>own a piece of property, or if you own your

42
00:02:47.879 --> 00:02:51.039
<v Speaker 2>own home in Summerville and you have a sidewalk in

43
00:02:51.080 --> 00:02:55.719
<v Speaker 2>front of your house, I believe that sidewalk is owned

44
00:02:55.759 --> 00:02:59.800
<v Speaker 2>by the City of Summerville, not by the homeowner. That's

45
00:02:59.840 --> 00:03:01.560
<v Speaker 2>the way it is in most cities, and I have

46
00:03:01.680 --> 00:03:05.159
<v Speaker 2>no reason to think that that's anywhere any different in Somerville. However,

47
00:03:06.080 --> 00:03:12.400
<v Speaker 2>in Somerville, you have an obligation to keep your sidewalk clear,

48
00:03:12.759 --> 00:03:17.560
<v Speaker 2>which you know, I understand under normal circumstances, that's that's

49
00:03:17.599 --> 00:03:24.000
<v Speaker 2>a kind of a reasonable obligation. They, however, have looked

50
00:03:24.159 --> 00:03:30.039
<v Speaker 2>at this series of snowstorms in Somerville, and I think

51
00:03:30.080 --> 00:03:34.919
<v Speaker 2>they have seen it as a revenue stream because according

52
00:03:35.039 --> 00:03:39.400
<v Speaker 2>to and I have several TV and newspaper stories here,

53
00:03:39.479 --> 00:03:41.400
<v Speaker 2>and I will just tell you that this is not

54
00:03:41.560 --> 00:03:44.319
<v Speaker 2>research that I have independently done. But this research is

55
00:03:44.360 --> 00:03:49.360
<v Speaker 2>not only from the shoveling rules and supports on the

56
00:03:49.400 --> 00:03:51.919
<v Speaker 2>City of Somerville's website, which we're going to talk about,

57
00:03:52.360 --> 00:03:58.560
<v Speaker 2>but also you know, legitimate news sources are reporting that

58
00:03:59.599 --> 00:04:03.879
<v Speaker 2>a lot of tickets have been given out this winter,

59
00:04:04.599 --> 00:04:07.080
<v Speaker 2>and as certainly I would assume the vast majority of

60
00:04:07.080 --> 00:04:11.039
<v Speaker 2>those tickets have been issued since probably the middle of January,

61
00:04:11.120 --> 00:04:13.520
<v Speaker 2>because before the middle of January, we didn't have much

62
00:04:13.520 --> 00:04:17.399
<v Speaker 2>snow this year, but not much cold. Frankly, I mean,

63
00:04:17.480 --> 00:04:19.360
<v Speaker 2>it was a little cold in other years, but it

64
00:04:19.399 --> 00:04:23.560
<v Speaker 2>has really the last month gotten very cold. Since November

65
00:04:24.480 --> 00:04:28.160
<v Speaker 2>of twenty twenty four, Somerville has given out eight hundred

66
00:04:28.199 --> 00:04:34.399
<v Speaker 2>and ninety four tickets to homeowners who have not cleared

67
00:04:34.439 --> 00:04:43.839
<v Speaker 2>their sidewalks. Now the system in Somerville says that sidewalks

68
00:04:43.920 --> 00:04:48.680
<v Speaker 2>must be cleared within six daylight hours. Once the snow stops,

69
00:04:50.240 --> 00:04:54.639
<v Speaker 2>the homeowner is expected required to shovel a path of

70
00:04:54.680 --> 00:04:58.560
<v Speaker 2>at least thirty six inches that's three feet wide down

71
00:04:58.600 --> 00:05:03.439
<v Speaker 2>to the payment on the sidewalks and ramps. Now, by

72
00:05:03.480 --> 00:05:06.560
<v Speaker 2>the way, do not shovel the snow onto city streets

73
00:05:07.040 --> 00:05:11.079
<v Speaker 2>unless the temperature is forty degrees warmer, and during daylight hours.

74
00:05:11.759 --> 00:05:14.560
<v Speaker 2>Break up snow and ice and spread it evenly on

75
00:05:14.639 --> 00:05:18.560
<v Speaker 2>the street so it melts more quickly. Okay, These rules

76
00:05:18.600 --> 00:05:21.600
<v Speaker 2>apply to all snowfall or ice, not just when a

77
00:05:21.639 --> 00:05:25.319
<v Speaker 2>snow emergency is declared. Now it says, don't get a

78
00:05:25.360 --> 00:05:28.959
<v Speaker 2>ticket not complying with the above rules can result in

79
00:05:29.000 --> 00:05:31.319
<v Speaker 2>a fine of one hundred dollars for the first offense

80
00:05:32.480 --> 00:05:35.240
<v Speaker 2>for owners of one to two and three unit homes,

81
00:05:35.800 --> 00:05:39.480
<v Speaker 2>two hundred dollars for the second defense, and three hundred

82
00:05:39.519 --> 00:05:44.439
<v Speaker 2>for all subsequent offenses. Fines for commercial property or residential

83
00:05:44.439 --> 00:05:47.319
<v Speaker 2>buildings with more than four units go up a little

84
00:05:47.319 --> 00:05:49.480
<v Speaker 2>bit to one hundred and fifty for the first defense

85
00:05:49.959 --> 00:05:55.879
<v Speaker 2>and three hundred for all subsequent offenses. In designated areas,

86
00:05:55.879 --> 00:05:59.000
<v Speaker 2>city crews may also clear sidewalks in front of private

87
00:05:59.040 --> 00:06:03.079
<v Speaker 2>properties beginning twenty four hours after the snow stops falling.

88
00:06:03.160 --> 00:06:09.360
<v Speaker 2>Snow removal will be prioritized following the guidelines below. The

89
00:06:09.399 --> 00:06:12.920
<v Speaker 2>city may impose additional fines in place leans on property

90
00:06:12.920 --> 00:06:16.879
<v Speaker 2>where the city has to clear the sidewalks. So here's

91
00:06:16.920 --> 00:06:22.879
<v Speaker 2>where it really gets interesting reports of unshoveled sidewalks. All

92
00:06:22.920 --> 00:06:27.240
<v Speaker 2>you have to do is report an unshoveled sidewalk by

93
00:06:27.319 --> 00:06:30.160
<v Speaker 2>calling three to one one or there's a number there

94
00:06:30.199 --> 00:06:34.959
<v Speaker 2>to city hall, emailing three to one one updates at Somerville,

95
00:06:35.160 --> 00:06:39.040
<v Speaker 2>MA dot gov, or downloading and using the three one

96
00:06:39.160 --> 00:06:44.279
<v Speaker 2>one app. You may also report issues via Facebook, Facebook,

97
00:06:44.319 --> 00:06:48.319
<v Speaker 2>dot com, Slash three one one Somerville or Twitter at

98
00:06:48.360 --> 00:06:53.639
<v Speaker 2>three to one one Somerville at Somerville City Hall. Let

99
00:06:53.639 --> 00:06:57.519
<v Speaker 2>me tell you they are very aggressive in Somerville. Now,

100
00:06:57.519 --> 00:07:00.839
<v Speaker 2>there apparently is some sort of a Somerville Youth Show program.

101
00:07:00.959 --> 00:07:03.800
<v Speaker 2>Is a paid opportunity for you to help for youth

102
00:07:03.839 --> 00:07:07.920
<v Speaker 2>to help a local seniors, persons with disabilities, or persons

103
00:07:07.920 --> 00:07:11.680
<v Speaker 2>with medical conditions after a snowstorm. Seniors and other qualified

104
00:07:11.720 --> 00:07:16.160
<v Speaker 2>persons pay a subsidized fee to Youth for shoveling services

105
00:07:16.199 --> 00:07:19.439
<v Speaker 2>for both their own property and for the adjacent sidewalks.

106
00:07:20.800 --> 00:07:24.959
<v Speaker 2>So even if you're a senior, or if you're a

107
00:07:25.000 --> 00:07:28.399
<v Speaker 2>person with a disability, or you're a person with a

108
00:07:28.439 --> 00:07:32.240
<v Speaker 2>medical condition like a heart condition, you too are expected

109
00:07:32.279 --> 00:07:38.240
<v Speaker 2>to shovel the city sidewalk that is adjacent to your property,

110
00:07:38.439 --> 00:07:42.759
<v Speaker 2>the sidewalk in front of your property. And they are aggressive.

111
00:07:43.120 --> 00:07:48.560
<v Speaker 2>Eight hundred and ninety four tickets so far for these conditions.

112
00:07:49.000 --> 00:07:51.959
<v Speaker 2>Let me tell you, folks in Somerville, you should be

113
00:07:52.000 --> 00:07:57.240
<v Speaker 2>calling the Mayor's office Mayor Cantanja Valentine, she's a second

114
00:07:57.279 --> 00:08:02.279
<v Speaker 2>term mayor and let her know that imposition of this

115
00:08:02.439 --> 00:08:07.720
<v Speaker 2>policy which might work, you know, for a normal snowstorm. Okay,

116
00:08:08.199 --> 00:08:11.959
<v Speaker 2>normal snowstorm two or three inches. Okay, that's fine. But

117
00:08:12.079 --> 00:08:17.879
<v Speaker 2>we've had a series of snowstorms which it's impossible. It's

118
00:08:18.079 --> 00:08:22.920
<v Speaker 2>impossible to keep your sidewalk clear, particularly if you're a senior,

119
00:08:22.959 --> 00:08:25.480
<v Speaker 2>if you're someone with disabilities, or if you're someone with

120
00:08:25.560 --> 00:08:29.000
<v Speaker 2>some sort of a heart condition. People have died shoveling

121
00:08:29.040 --> 00:08:34.519
<v Speaker 2>snow in Somerville. Apparently the political leaders in Somerville are

122
00:08:34.600 --> 00:08:38.879
<v Speaker 2>more interested in a revenue stream than they are in

123
00:08:38.919 --> 00:08:42.120
<v Speaker 2>the health and welfare of their citizens. I'm going to

124
00:08:42.200 --> 00:08:46.399
<v Speaker 2>open up the lines here. Okay, I feel really strongly

125
00:08:46.440 --> 00:08:51.240
<v Speaker 2>on this. I feel really strongly now. I shoveled some

126
00:08:51.600 --> 00:08:54.679
<v Speaker 2>on my property. I don't live in Somerville, but I

127
00:08:54.720 --> 00:08:58.240
<v Speaker 2>shoveled some on my property. I put some sand out

128
00:08:58.320 --> 00:09:03.320
<v Speaker 2>on my property. Was out on Sunday afternoon when it

129
00:09:03.360 --> 00:09:06.840
<v Speaker 2>was pouring rain, and I got soaked. I easily could

130
00:09:06.879 --> 00:09:11.840
<v Speaker 2>have gotten pneumonia. I was soaked through some of my clothes.

131
00:09:11.840 --> 00:09:14.799
<v Speaker 2>I don't think my outer garments haven't dried off even

132
00:09:15.320 --> 00:09:18.360
<v Speaker 2>at this point on Thursday. Uh, And I was out

133
00:09:18.360 --> 00:09:22.399
<v Speaker 2>there trying to take advantage of the rain and use

134
00:09:22.559 --> 00:09:25.840
<v Speaker 2>whatever rain we were going to get to form some rivulets.

135
00:09:25.919 --> 00:09:30.440
<v Speaker 2>Which would you know channel the any snow that did

136
00:09:30.519 --> 00:09:34.080
<v Speaker 2>melt or any ice that did melt away down down

137
00:09:34.120 --> 00:09:37.440
<v Speaker 2>the driveway or off the driveway. So I want to

138
00:09:37.480 --> 00:09:41.120
<v Speaker 2>know from you, where are the people of Somerville and

139
00:09:41.200 --> 00:09:43.919
<v Speaker 2>if you're in Summerville. This is just not fair. Now

140
00:09:43.960 --> 00:09:46.799
<v Speaker 2>I know someone's gonna say, wow, people should be able

141
00:09:46.840 --> 00:09:49.879
<v Speaker 2>to walk on the sidewalks. Well, guess what. Sometimes in

142
00:09:49.919 --> 00:09:52.519
<v Speaker 2>the wintertime you can't walk on the sidewalks. It's as

143
00:09:52.519 --> 00:09:55.919
<v Speaker 2>simple as that. Sometimes in the wintertime you're kind of

144
00:09:55.960 --> 00:09:58.279
<v Speaker 2>crazy if you walk on the sidewalks because you're only

145
00:09:58.320 --> 00:10:01.399
<v Speaker 2>looking for trouble. This is nasty set of storms who

146
00:10:01.399 --> 00:10:06.000
<v Speaker 2>have had. I think it's time for Somerville to back off,

147
00:10:06.120 --> 00:10:09.000
<v Speaker 2>and I'm calling for all of those tickets, those eight

148
00:10:09.120 --> 00:10:13.480
<v Speaker 2>hundred and thirty four tickets, that money should be refunded.

149
00:10:13.840 --> 00:10:16.879
<v Speaker 2>It's as simple as that. That is a burden that

150
00:10:17.000 --> 00:10:19.879
<v Speaker 2>you're placing on your own citizens in Somerville, which I

151
00:10:19.919 --> 00:10:24.000
<v Speaker 2>think is totally unfair. It's also arbitrary and capricious because

152
00:10:24.039 --> 00:10:26.320
<v Speaker 2>if if I happen to live in a neighborhood where

153
00:10:26.320 --> 00:10:32.519
<v Speaker 2>someone wants to report me the little snow shoveling superintendent

154
00:10:32.639 --> 00:10:34.679
<v Speaker 2>who will write the tickets will show up at my

155
00:10:34.799 --> 00:10:38.600
<v Speaker 2>door only because maybe there's a neighbor that doesn't like me.

156
00:10:38.919 --> 00:10:43.600
<v Speaker 2>There's too much in this, too much involvement that I

157
00:10:43.639 --> 00:10:47.480
<v Speaker 2>think is totally unfair. Six one, seven, two, five, four

158
00:10:47.559 --> 00:10:50.159
<v Speaker 2>ten thirty six one seven, nine three one ten thirty.

159
00:10:50.960 --> 00:10:54.120
<v Speaker 2>Let's have at it, and let's shake Somerville up here

160
00:10:54.120 --> 00:10:56.320
<v Speaker 2>a little bit. And I want to hear from listeners

161
00:10:56.320 --> 00:10:58.799
<v Speaker 2>in Somerville, and I want to hear from listeners from

162
00:10:58.840 --> 00:11:02.000
<v Speaker 2>people like me who don't want to ever go to Somerville,

163
00:11:03.320 --> 00:11:07.600
<v Speaker 2>particularly during the winter, because I don't think it is

164
00:11:07.679 --> 00:11:12.600
<v Speaker 2>not a friendly place. Somerville. We should we should call

165
00:11:12.639 --> 00:11:16.039
<v Speaker 2>it Winterville at this point, maybe Howie Winterville. We'll be

166
00:11:16.080 --> 00:11:18.360
<v Speaker 2>back on nightside. Let's have some fun with this, but

167
00:11:18.440 --> 00:11:22.519
<v Speaker 2>let's also make our points because if this succeeds in Somerville,

168
00:11:22.559 --> 00:11:24.879
<v Speaker 2>it's gonna succeed in neighborhoods where you are. And this

169
00:11:25.039 --> 00:11:29.679
<v Speaker 2>is unfair. There's no sidewalk in Somerville other than a

170
00:11:29.799 --> 00:11:33.320
<v Speaker 2>sidewalk that you know they have these little plows. That's

171
00:11:33.320 --> 00:11:36.200
<v Speaker 2>what the Somerville DPW is for, simple as that we'll

172
00:11:36.240 --> 00:11:37.840
<v Speaker 2>be back on nightside right after this.

173
00:11:39.279 --> 00:11:42.240
<v Speaker 1>Now back to Dan Ray live from the Window World

174
00:11:42.360 --> 00:11:46.120
<v Speaker 1>Nights Side Studios on WBS News Radio.

175
00:11:46.679 --> 00:11:48.960
<v Speaker 2>All right, let's let's get at it. Gonna go to

176
00:11:49.240 --> 00:11:53.440
<v Speaker 2>Justin and Marlborough. Justin, Welcome, sir, how are you tonight?

177
00:11:53.519 --> 00:11:54.240
<v Speaker 2>Welcome Justin?

178
00:11:55.240 --> 00:11:58.519
<v Speaker 3>Thank you for taking my call. You're forgetting a very,

179
00:11:58.759 --> 00:12:02.159
<v Speaker 3>You're forgetting a very with the point for yourself.

180
00:12:02.879 --> 00:12:03.360
<v Speaker 2>Go hell of.

181
00:12:03.440 --> 00:12:07.559
<v Speaker 3>They'll copy some of them'll copy this from your from

182
00:12:07.600 --> 00:12:09.799
<v Speaker 3>your from where you live. Some of them will copy

183
00:12:09.879 --> 00:12:13.200
<v Speaker 3>this from Newton Newton rule.

184
00:12:14.200 --> 00:12:17.799
<v Speaker 2>I don't know that that Newton is is enforcing it

185
00:12:17.879 --> 00:12:21.000
<v Speaker 2>as as actively. Now. I know that there are you know,

186
00:12:21.039 --> 00:12:22.879
<v Speaker 2>there are lots of people who want to walk on

187
00:12:22.960 --> 00:12:26.279
<v Speaker 2>the sidewalks. But I also think that people should use

188
00:12:26.320 --> 00:12:30.279
<v Speaker 2>their head and and occasionally say to themselves, Okay, maybe

189
00:12:30.279 --> 00:12:33.440
<v Speaker 2>it's not you know, it's not advisable for me to

190
00:12:33.480 --> 00:12:34.480
<v Speaker 2>walk on the sidewalk.

191
00:12:36.120 --> 00:12:40.840
<v Speaker 3>Now, in Newton they actually had the traffic police, the

192
00:12:41.240 --> 00:12:44.519
<v Speaker 3>white cas They go around and give out they give

193
00:12:44.519 --> 00:12:47.759
<v Speaker 3>out warnings. I work as a mailman in Newton, so

194
00:12:47.879 --> 00:12:51.039
<v Speaker 3>I walk on the side walks every day. So I

195
00:12:51.080 --> 00:12:54.759
<v Speaker 3>think it's wonderful. Just my own self is benefit.

196
00:12:55.279 --> 00:12:58.159
<v Speaker 2>But the pot guess what I understand that. But but

197
00:12:58.240 --> 00:13:02.799
<v Speaker 2>the key word is selfish. You you at least acknowledge

198
00:13:04.399 --> 00:13:08.200
<v Speaker 2>that that it that it's a good you know that

199
00:13:08.320 --> 00:13:11.039
<v Speaker 2>it is. You know it's good for you. I get it,

200
00:13:11.240 --> 00:13:17.840
<v Speaker 2>I really do. I I respect that. But men, I

201
00:13:17.960 --> 00:13:26.279
<v Speaker 2>just don't understand why anyone would we're try to go

202
00:13:26.360 --> 00:13:30.000
<v Speaker 2>out and shovel. It's it just it's tough, you know.

203
00:13:30.159 --> 00:13:34.120
<v Speaker 3>I mean it's yeah, because I tell the people don't stumble.

204
00:13:34.240 --> 00:13:37.120
<v Speaker 3>I said, I recommend that they buy a big bag

205
00:13:37.200 --> 00:13:38.000
<v Speaker 3>of rock salt.

206
00:13:39.080 --> 00:13:41.720
<v Speaker 2>That's good. But if again, if you're if you're eighty

207
00:13:41.720 --> 00:13:44.200
<v Speaker 2>five years old, you maybe you don't have the ability

208
00:13:44.240 --> 00:13:46.360
<v Speaker 2>to get to the store and buy rock salt.

209
00:13:47.879 --> 00:13:50.360
<v Speaker 3>Right, and you just hope you just hope for the

210
00:13:50.399 --> 00:13:52.840
<v Speaker 3>compassion of the neighbors. Don't anythink I want to bring

211
00:13:52.919 --> 00:13:58.679
<v Speaker 3>up is that's say, you're right, the city owns the sidewalks.

212
00:13:59.080 --> 00:14:01.759
<v Speaker 3>But if the city, if the city decides to fix

213
00:14:01.799 --> 00:14:04.679
<v Speaker 3>it themselves, that's gonna cost a lot of money to

214
00:14:04.720 --> 00:14:10.519
<v Speaker 3>get those individual like they have those small little plows. Yeah,

215
00:14:11.159 --> 00:14:14.279
<v Speaker 3>side block that that'll cost more money than it does

216
00:14:14.399 --> 00:14:17.240
<v Speaker 3>to buy rock thought. I'm just saying it's going to

217
00:14:17.320 --> 00:14:20.320
<v Speaker 3>be more expensive to have the city. That's the idea,

218
00:14:20.399 --> 00:14:20.559
<v Speaker 3>you know.

219
00:14:20.879 --> 00:14:23.120
<v Speaker 2>I think all the points you make, Justine are great.

220
00:14:23.200 --> 00:14:25.399
<v Speaker 2>At the same time, I would bet if we went

221
00:14:25.440 --> 00:14:28.600
<v Speaker 2>through the City of Somerville budget, if we put Elon

222
00:14:28.759 --> 00:14:32.080
<v Speaker 2>Musk into Somerville City Hall, he could find some waste

223
00:14:32.080 --> 00:14:37.519
<v Speaker 2>and fraud in Somerville City Hall saves some money. I

224
00:14:37.679 --> 00:14:40.919
<v Speaker 2>just feel badly for some person who's on a fixed income,

225
00:14:41.519 --> 00:14:45.480
<v Speaker 2>you know, particularly older person living on maybe Social Security benefits,

226
00:14:45.720 --> 00:14:47.279
<v Speaker 2>and all of a sudden they get hit with a

227
00:14:47.279 --> 00:14:51.559
<v Speaker 2>couple of one hundred dollars fines because they d shovel.

228
00:14:52.679 --> 00:14:54.399
<v Speaker 3>I agree with you and Noney have. The thing I

229
00:14:54.440 --> 00:14:57.000
<v Speaker 3>want to bring up is the other people that suffer

230
00:14:57.080 --> 00:14:59.799
<v Speaker 3>a lot are the people that live on the corner.

231
00:15:00.240 --> 00:15:02.519
<v Speaker 3>The house is on the corner, but then they get

232
00:15:02.519 --> 00:15:05.720
<v Speaker 3>two sidewalks, and those are the ones that you know.

233
00:15:06.120 --> 00:15:09.000
<v Speaker 2>Well. My producer Rob was just saying that that he

234
00:15:09.039 --> 00:15:12.519
<v Speaker 2>lives he doesn't live in Somerville, thank goodness, but he

235
00:15:13.200 --> 00:15:15.679
<v Speaker 2>deals with that as well. Justin. Always great to hear

236
00:15:15.720 --> 00:15:17.840
<v Speaker 2>your voice. Thank you so much and thanks for doing

237
00:15:17.879 --> 00:15:20.679
<v Speaker 2>what you do and getting the mail out. Do you

238
00:15:20.679 --> 00:15:22.519
<v Speaker 2>get it. Do you drive a truck or do you

239
00:15:23.720 --> 00:15:25.200
<v Speaker 2>do you have to walk a path.

240
00:15:26.039 --> 00:15:27.840
<v Speaker 3>I walk, and the last thing I want to say

241
00:15:27.840 --> 00:15:32.159
<v Speaker 3>about walking, yea, me is that people are very scared

242
00:15:33.159 --> 00:15:36.440
<v Speaker 3>when they drive, even though there's no car coming on

243
00:15:36.440 --> 00:15:39.480
<v Speaker 3>the other side. They won't go over the yellow line.

244
00:15:39.840 --> 00:15:48.279
<v Speaker 2>Oh absolutely, yeah, it's crazy. Yeah, they were rather the

245
00:15:48.360 --> 00:15:51.120
<v Speaker 2>side swipe a vehicle that's parked there, or maybe if

246
00:15:51.159 --> 00:15:54.279
<v Speaker 2>you'll pulled over to deliver some mail. Thanks Justin, We'll

247
00:15:54.320 --> 00:15:57.360
<v Speaker 2>talk soon. Okay, thank you, buddy, talk to you soon.

248
00:15:57.759 --> 00:15:59.919
<v Speaker 2>Let me go next to Jennifer and Brockton. Hey, John

249
00:16:00.120 --> 00:16:02.240
<v Speaker 2>for welcome. You're next on nightside.

250
00:16:02.559 --> 00:16:03.639
<v Speaker 4>Hi Dan, how are you?

251
00:16:04.279 --> 00:16:08.759
<v Speaker 2>I'm fine, Jennifer. I think I'm absolutely right on this.

252
00:16:08.960 --> 00:16:09.639
<v Speaker 2>What do you think?

253
00:16:10.960 --> 00:16:11.639
<v Speaker 5>Uh?

254
00:16:11.679 --> 00:16:14.039
<v Speaker 4>Well, okay, you have some good points. I get you

255
00:16:14.120 --> 00:16:17.600
<v Speaker 4>about it being an arbitrary and you know you NEBA

256
00:16:17.639 --> 00:16:19.480
<v Speaker 4>could call in on you and that's not yea.

257
00:16:20.879 --> 00:16:24.279
<v Speaker 2>It's like they're trying to have your neighbor racked you out.

258
00:16:24.600 --> 00:16:29.919
<v Speaker 2>Jennifer Horeston has shoveled her sidewalk right.

259
00:16:29.960 --> 00:16:31.600
<v Speaker 4>And I can that. I can see how that can

260
00:16:31.639 --> 00:16:34.559
<v Speaker 4>be a real problem. But you know, I know that

261
00:16:34.600 --> 00:16:37.120
<v Speaker 4>Somersville has some protections in place. I don't. I don't

262
00:16:37.159 --> 00:16:40.440
<v Speaker 4>live in Somerville. I have some friends in Somerville, but

263
00:16:40.639 --> 00:16:43.240
<v Speaker 4>they have an appeal process, so if you feel that

264
00:16:43.440 --> 00:16:46.960
<v Speaker 4>it's been unfairly reported or whatever, like, there is a

265
00:16:47.120 --> 00:16:50.720
<v Speaker 4>way to to try to navigate that. So I found that,

266
00:16:50.919 --> 00:16:52.600
<v Speaker 4>Like when I heard it on the news the other day,

267
00:16:52.600 --> 00:16:55.720
<v Speaker 4>I was like, hmm, this is not cool. But at

268
00:16:55.720 --> 00:16:57.799
<v Speaker 4>the same time, like, okay, well, you know there is

269
00:16:57.840 --> 00:17:02.799
<v Speaker 4>a process, so I was real sure by that. The

270
00:17:02.919 --> 00:17:03.720
<v Speaker 4>other thing.

271
00:17:03.799 --> 00:17:06.400
<v Speaker 2>Let me ask you this, Jennifer. Hey, Jennifer, have you

272
00:17:06.440 --> 00:17:09.279
<v Speaker 2>ever have you ever tried to take an appeal on

273
00:17:09.400 --> 00:17:12.079
<v Speaker 2>anything in city hall? You live in Brockton, Okay, I

274
00:17:12.079 --> 00:17:16.880
<v Speaker 2>don't know. You know, you're sitting in front of some clerk.

275
00:17:17.319 --> 00:17:20.039
<v Speaker 2>You got to take a day off from work, or

276
00:17:20.039 --> 00:17:21.559
<v Speaker 2>you got to take a half a day off from

277
00:17:21.559 --> 00:17:24.480
<v Speaker 2>work to go into the clerk's office and sit in

278
00:17:24.559 --> 00:17:27.839
<v Speaker 2>front of some clerk. And most of the clerks they

279
00:17:27.839 --> 00:17:30.279
<v Speaker 2>could kill less, they though.

280
00:17:30.319 --> 00:17:32.279
<v Speaker 4>I mean, you can do a lot of things by mail, now,

281
00:17:32.960 --> 00:17:35.240
<v Speaker 4>you know. And there's also, like you know, there are

282
00:17:35.359 --> 00:17:38.359
<v Speaker 4>other avenues. It's not always in person. So like, I

283
00:17:38.400 --> 00:17:40.039
<v Speaker 4>don't want to jump to the conclusion that that's the

284
00:17:40.079 --> 00:17:42.359
<v Speaker 4>only way that you can resolve that is in person.

285
00:17:45.839 --> 00:17:48.519
<v Speaker 2>Dealing with with city with city clerks is whatever.

286
00:17:50.599 --> 00:17:53.319
<v Speaker 4>Oh no, I hear you, I hear you. But you know,

287
00:17:53.559 --> 00:17:57.559
<v Speaker 4>years ago when we had the snow apocalypse and then whatever,

288
00:17:59.359 --> 00:18:00.240
<v Speaker 4>we were in the middle.

289
00:18:00.519 --> 00:18:02.880
<v Speaker 2>Ten years ago this month, we were in the middle

290
00:18:02.920 --> 00:18:04.039
<v Speaker 2>of snow apocalypse.

291
00:18:04.119 --> 00:18:08.680
<v Speaker 4>Absolutely yep, and what a nightmare. And when I was

292
00:18:10.039 --> 00:18:12.559
<v Speaker 4>I have two young girls. They're a little older now,

293
00:18:12.640 --> 00:18:15.839
<v Speaker 4>but they're school age, so they're both in school and

294
00:18:16.160 --> 00:18:20.440
<v Speaker 4>it was a nightmare. Kids in Broxton were walking in line,

295
00:18:20.559 --> 00:18:26.519
<v Speaker 4>single style in the street with tons of traffic. So

296
00:18:27.559 --> 00:18:31.759
<v Speaker 4>you know, Broxton was issuing tickets at that time, and

297
00:18:31.880 --> 00:18:34.160
<v Speaker 4>you know, were they paid or was anything ever resolved?

298
00:18:34.200 --> 00:18:37.880

300
00:18:39.960 --> 00:18:43.920
<v Speaker 4>to be some sort of solution, whether the city's fumness

301
00:18:43.920 --> 00:18:46.319
<v Speaker 4>and take care of it themselves. You know, that's not

302
00:18:46.359 --> 00:18:48.720
<v Speaker 4>realistic either. I don't know what the solution is. But

360
00:21:11.960 --> 00:21:14.880
<v Speaker 2>a different name if you want, so you're not going

361
00:21:14.880 --> 00:21:17.640
<v Speaker 2>to be ratted out by the thought police in Somerville

362
00:21:18.440 --> 00:21:20.240
<v Speaker 2>or the snow police. Let me put it like that.

363
00:21:20.279 --> 00:21:21.640
<v Speaker 2>Back on Nightside right after.

364
00:21:21.480 --> 00:21:27.640
<v Speaker 1>This, It's Nightside with Dan Boston's news radio.

365
00:21:28.640 --> 00:21:31.079
<v Speaker 2>Let's keep rolling. You're going to go to Bill in Boston. Hey, Bill,

366
00:21:31.079 --> 00:21:33.359
<v Speaker 2>appreciate your calling in. Thanks for your patience. You're next

367
00:21:33.359 --> 00:21:34.119
<v Speaker 2>on Nightside.

368
00:21:35.240 --> 00:21:40.640
<v Speaker 5>Hi Dan, My mom and grandma grew up between Davis

369
00:21:40.680 --> 00:21:42.839
<v Speaker 5>Square and Deal Square in Somerville.

370
00:21:43.200 --> 00:21:46.400
<v Speaker 8>Yeah, and uh so, I'm very familiar with the area.

371
00:21:48.160 --> 00:21:50.960
<v Speaker 5>I want to throw this out on the constitutional level.

372
00:21:51.640 --> 00:21:55.759
<v Speaker 5>Sidewalks for a property that was usually belonged to the

373
00:21:55.799 --> 00:21:59.880
<v Speaker 5>homeowner that the city took years ago because they want

374
00:21:59.920 --> 00:22:02.880
<v Speaker 5>to people to be able to walk without getting hit

375
00:22:02.920 --> 00:22:05.519
<v Speaker 5>by cars on the street. But it was an eminent

376
00:22:06.079 --> 00:22:10.319
<v Speaker 5>domain process where they would seize the property of the

377
00:22:10.359 --> 00:22:14.599
<v Speaker 5>homeowners and the homeowners would lose a portion of their

378
00:22:14.960 --> 00:22:17.839
<v Speaker 5>property because the city said we're taking it, We're putting

379
00:22:17.839 --> 00:22:18.759
<v Speaker 5>on sidewalks.

380
00:22:19.000 --> 00:22:21.720
<v Speaker 8>But nowhere did any city ever.

381
00:22:21.640 --> 00:22:25.640
<v Speaker 5>Tell people, oh, when you're seventy five years old and

382
00:22:25.680 --> 00:22:27.640
<v Speaker 5>eighty years old, you have to keep.

383
00:22:27.519 --> 00:22:31.119
<v Speaker 8>The sidewalks open for us. We're taking your property.

384
00:22:31.599 --> 00:22:37.000
<v Speaker 2>Yep. The constitutional points, great points, great points, And I

385
00:22:37.039 --> 00:22:41.559
<v Speaker 2>mean for me, I'm going on really the practical point

386
00:22:41.559 --> 00:22:44.319
<v Speaker 2>of view that if you're an older person, look, you

387
00:22:44.359 --> 00:22:46.440
<v Speaker 2>know if and by the way, I don't care if

388
00:22:46.480 --> 00:22:49.839
<v Speaker 2>you're twenty five years old and have the strength in

389
00:22:49.920 --> 00:22:53.519
<v Speaker 2>your in your hands of a mason, and you're you know,

390
00:22:53.640 --> 00:22:57.759
<v Speaker 2>six foot three and you're sculpted, try try getting rid

391
00:22:57.799 --> 00:22:59.960
<v Speaker 2>of that snow once it's turned to ice. It's time.

392
00:23:00.599 --> 00:23:01.279
<v Speaker 2>It's tough.

393
00:23:06.319 --> 00:23:08.920
<v Speaker 5>My grandmother was a widow in her eighties and I

394
00:23:09.039 --> 00:23:11.920
<v Speaker 5>used to come buy a house and she's out there

395
00:23:11.960 --> 00:23:18.839
<v Speaker 5>trying to clean things, and it's crazy. You know, this

396
00:23:18.880 --> 00:23:23.079
<v Speaker 5>is where cities go overboard, because it's a matter of

397
00:23:23.680 --> 00:23:25.920
<v Speaker 5>you hit the you hit the nail on the head.

398
00:23:26.079 --> 00:23:27.599
<v Speaker 5>It's about raising revenue.

399
00:23:27.880 --> 00:23:29.599
<v Speaker 8>They want to lose some money.

400
00:23:30.160 --> 00:23:32.359
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, all it is, that's all it is. It means,

401
00:23:32.599 --> 00:23:38.039
<v Speaker 2>you know, one more public servant. They'll use the word public.

402
00:23:38.160 --> 00:23:41.359
<v Speaker 2>We'll be able to hire another public servant who's probably

403
00:23:41.720 --> 00:23:45.759
<v Speaker 2>the brother in law of some city councilor or someone

404
00:23:45.920 --> 00:23:49.920
<v Speaker 2>like that. If you know what, someone cant who needs

405
00:23:49.920 --> 00:23:52.319
<v Speaker 2>a job. Yeah. I just think it's so unfair. And

406
00:23:53.119 --> 00:23:54.960
<v Speaker 2>if I was in some of it, I'd really be

407
00:23:55.079 --> 00:23:57.720
<v Speaker 2>upset and I'd be calling the mayor's office and look,

408
00:23:58.680 --> 00:24:01.039
<v Speaker 2>you have a situation where you set it up where

409
00:24:01.680 --> 00:24:05.400
<v Speaker 2>they expect people to call three one one and ran

410
00:24:05.480 --> 00:24:08.920
<v Speaker 2>out their neighbor. How about that? Oh yeah, argument with

411
00:24:08.960 --> 00:24:10.720
<v Speaker 2>your neighbor? Are you you have a little bit of

412
00:24:10.759 --> 00:24:12.920
<v Speaker 2>an issue with your neighbor? You call them up three

413
00:24:12.960 --> 00:24:16.480
<v Speaker 2>one one, Hey, you know, check out such and such,

414
00:24:17.559 --> 00:24:21.680
<v Speaker 2>you know atle sidewalk? How about that? Yeah? Yeah?

415
00:24:22.400 --> 00:24:22.720
<v Speaker 9>Can I?

416
00:24:22.880 --> 00:24:25.799
<v Speaker 8>Can I divert? Can I divert? For one second? There's

417
00:24:25.799 --> 00:24:29.039
<v Speaker 8>a neighborhood in Boston. Yeah, there's a neighborhood in.

418
00:24:29.039 --> 00:24:34.200
<v Speaker 5>Brighton, Boston, close to Boston College and it's an Orthodox

419
00:24:34.319 --> 00:24:40.279
<v Speaker 5>Jewish neighborhood where they have no parking four hours before

420
00:24:40.319 --> 00:24:44.240
<v Speaker 5>and after BC games and this neighborhood they're all Orthodox

421
00:24:44.400 --> 00:24:51.079
<v Speaker 5>Jewish people. And uh, nobody watched a mile and a

422
00:24:51.119 --> 00:24:54.319
<v Speaker 5>half from this neighborhood a pass from the from Chestnut

423
00:24:54.400 --> 00:24:58.160
<v Speaker 5>Hill AB to the ballgame. But the City of Boston

424
00:24:58.319 --> 00:25:00.920
<v Speaker 5>sweepstown ticket and tagging.

425
00:25:01.279 --> 00:25:03.559
<v Speaker 8>And I was down visiting a friend.

426
00:25:03.480 --> 00:25:06.559
<v Speaker 5>Dan and I'm not Jewish, but my friend is Jewish,

427
00:25:07.000 --> 00:25:10.400
<v Speaker 5>and somebody was tagging the next door neighbor to this.

428
00:25:10.279 --> 00:25:11.559
<v Speaker 8>Woman who is.

429
00:25:13.000 --> 00:25:16.799
<v Speaker 5>A rabbi in training, and he came out politely to ask,

430
00:25:17.119 --> 00:25:19.039
<v Speaker 5>and I pulled my cell phone out and I I

431
00:25:19.960 --> 00:25:22.079
<v Speaker 5>put it in his face and I said, I'm gonna

434
00:25:28.720 --> 00:25:29.319
<v Speaker 5>ran off.

<v Speaker 8>It had nothing to do with it. And nobody goes

439
00:25:40.000 --> 00:25:41.480

00:26:08.200 --> 00:26:10.559
<v Speaker 2>at six one seven, nine three one ten thirty. For

450
00:26:10.599 --> 00:26:13.559
<v Speaker 2>some reason, a lot of people don't remember these six month,

451
00:26:13.599 --> 00:26:17.400
<v Speaker 2>seven nine three one ten thirty. We're talking about snow

452
00:26:17.519 --> 00:26:22.359
<v Speaker 2>shoveling in Summerville and at the risk if you don't

453
00:26:22.400 --> 00:26:25.079
<v Speaker 2>do it. And by the way, it's just not snow,

454
00:26:25.240 --> 00:26:29.920
<v Speaker 2>it's ice. That is virtually impossible to move right now.

455
00:26:30.000 --> 00:26:33.079
<v Speaker 2>It's it's not going to move for another couple of weeks,

456
00:26:33.279 --> 00:26:34.799
<v Speaker 2>and they are going to be able to pick off

457
00:26:34.839 --> 00:26:37.039
<v Speaker 2>people in Somerville and charge them one hundred bucks, two

458
00:26:37.119 --> 00:26:40.759
<v Speaker 2>hundred bucks, three hundred bucks revenue stream. And it's just

459
00:26:41.000 --> 00:26:44.720
<v Speaker 2>it's it's sad. I feel badly for people in Somerville

460
00:26:45.000 --> 00:26:47.640
<v Speaker 2>to have to deal with this, particularly folks who have

461
00:26:47.720 --> 00:26:50.119
<v Speaker 2>some disabilities and some folks who are a little bit older.

462
00:26:50.359 --> 00:26:53.359
<v Speaker 2>And there have been people who have collapsed from shoveling snow.

463
00:26:54.279 --> 00:26:57.480
<v Speaker 2>But in Somerville, they don't really care. They were the

464
00:26:57.519 --> 00:27:00.839
<v Speaker 2>politicians over there. They're your progress who are who are

465
00:27:00.960 --> 00:27:04.000
<v Speaker 2>just looking to to grab as much money as they

466
00:27:04.039 --> 00:27:06.799
<v Speaker 2>can and get you for something. Next, they'll they'll have

467
00:27:06.880 --> 00:27:09.920
<v Speaker 2>a thing, I'm sure probably coming up on grass cutting.

468
00:27:09.920 --> 00:27:11.559
<v Speaker 2>If you don't cover the grass, if you don't cut

469
00:27:11.599 --> 00:27:13.880
<v Speaker 2>your grass to a certain length, they'll be able to

470
00:27:14.359 --> 00:27:17.279
<v Speaker 2>penalize you as well. Coming back on the night Side.

471
00:27:17.240 --> 00:27:20.240
<v Speaker 1>Now bent to Dan ray Line from the Window World

472
00:27:20.359 --> 00:27:23.279
<v Speaker 1>night Side Studios on w b Z the news.

473
00:27:23.160 --> 00:27:27.440
<v Speaker 2>Radio, keep rolling to fill in Boston, Phil. I think

474
00:27:27.480 --> 00:27:29.119
<v Speaker 2>I know you well enough to know you're gonna be

475
00:27:29.200 --> 00:27:30.319
<v Speaker 2>upset about this, Phil.

476
00:27:31.640 --> 00:27:34.200
<v Speaker 9>No, I'm just I'm just hoping the bike lanes.

477
00:27:33.920 --> 00:27:38.279
<v Speaker 2>Were right exactly. Yeah, let's find the people.

478
00:27:39.799 --> 00:27:42.640
<v Speaker 9>When you call me, I mean you when you were

479
00:27:42.640 --> 00:27:45.400
<v Speaker 9>talking about how you were able to channel the water

480
00:27:45.480 --> 00:27:47.400
<v Speaker 9>so it goes downhill. That's what happened to me. I

481
00:27:47.440 --> 00:27:50.240
<v Speaker 9>was channeling the water, so we'll come down into the

482
00:27:50.400 --> 00:27:52.359
<v Speaker 9>into the gutter and go down the street. It worked

483
00:27:52.359 --> 00:27:54.640
<v Speaker 9>out good wall to figure it out, but in the

484
00:27:54.759 --> 00:27:57.359
<v Speaker 9>process I try to keep that damn kind of strong

485
00:27:57.440 --> 00:28:00.720
<v Speaker 9>so it wouldn't break down. And when I drove out

486
00:28:00.839 --> 00:28:04.519
<v Speaker 9>the cay, I tore up the plastic pieces. So I

487
00:28:04.519 --> 00:28:07.559
<v Speaker 9>gotta figure out out. But can't they put I mean

488
00:28:07.680 --> 00:28:10.240
<v Speaker 9>then someone someone mentioned by rock sall a pail with

489
00:28:10.279 --> 00:28:14.000
<v Speaker 9>you can't buy rock rock salt melts is going out

490
00:28:14.000 --> 00:28:15.680
<v Speaker 9>the door before this even happened.

491
00:28:16.839 --> 00:28:19.920
<v Speaker 2>Look, I'm told that because it was a light snow

492
00:28:20.119 --> 00:28:23.680
<v Speaker 2>the last few winters that the rock salt manufacturers had

493
00:28:23.759 --> 00:28:26.480
<v Speaker 2>kind of cut back on how much rock salt manufactured.

494
00:28:26.559 --> 00:28:28.319
<v Speaker 2>So yeah, that's still well.

495
00:28:28.440 --> 00:28:31.519
<v Speaker 9>Filers given tickets right wonderable back of the Blizzard of

496
00:28:31.559 --> 00:28:33.480
<v Speaker 9>seventy eight and give everybody to was stuck on the

497
00:28:33.480 --> 00:28:36.359
<v Speaker 9>expressway tickets park in the expressway.

498
00:28:36.839 --> 00:28:40.039
<v Speaker 2>I mean you today today they would do that. I

499
00:28:40.079 --> 00:28:42.680
<v Speaker 2>think that the sty there, I.

500
00:28:42.599 --> 00:28:43.720
<v Speaker 9>Mean, it's ridiculous.

501
00:28:44.960 --> 00:28:47.319
<v Speaker 2>Well, they look at they look at all of us

502
00:28:47.400 --> 00:28:49.759
<v Speaker 2>as nothing other than at MS.

503
00:28:52.480 --> 00:28:55.880
<v Speaker 9>Pry a ticket, you get another hundred dollars ticket. You

504
00:28:55.960 --> 00:28:57.839
<v Speaker 9>can't make this. This unbelievable.

505
00:28:58.279 --> 00:29:00.880
<v Speaker 2>But here's the thing. Look, you go to the store.

506
00:29:01.160 --> 00:29:03.480
<v Speaker 2>They want to charge you now for paper bags, they

507
00:29:03.480 --> 00:29:07.559
<v Speaker 2>want to charge you for plastic bags, everything, everything, And

508
00:29:07.559 --> 00:29:09.839
<v Speaker 2>now you say, well, it's a nickel or a dime.

509
00:29:12.240 --> 00:29:15.400
<v Speaker 9>They got like maybe twenty spots the park on the

510
00:29:15.400 --> 00:29:17.640
<v Speaker 9>street to go to the local guy there, and then

511
00:29:17.680 --> 00:29:21.480
<v Speaker 9>they got an eight story apartment and going up over garage.

512
00:29:21.680 --> 00:29:24.359
<v Speaker 9>That should be a lot of fun. I mean is

513
00:29:24.599 --> 00:29:26.400
<v Speaker 9>I don't want to get But the reason I calls

514
00:29:26.440 --> 00:29:28.720
<v Speaker 9>when you mentioned about you want, you're not your way

515
00:29:28.759 --> 00:29:30.920
<v Speaker 9>to shovel. So what kind of the water will kind

516
00:29:30.920 --> 00:29:32.160
<v Speaker 9>of blend in with We're.

517
00:29:32.000 --> 00:29:34.119
<v Speaker 2>Trying to push the water because then the water would

518
00:29:34.240 --> 00:29:36.359
<v Speaker 2>would melt some of the snow. But it was so cold,

519
00:29:36.640 --> 00:29:38.920
<v Speaker 2>I mean it was over by four o'clock in the afternoon.

520
00:29:38.960 --> 00:29:41.839
<v Speaker 2>The water was saying, we're freezing up here. No, but

521
00:29:41.920 --> 00:29:45.200
<v Speaker 2>if you've heard the Phraseville. You're gonna nickel and dime someone.

522
00:29:45.440 --> 00:29:47.240
<v Speaker 2>That's what they do to you. They nickel and dime

523
00:29:47.279 --> 00:29:48.799
<v Speaker 2>you what it's a one hundred dollars ticket for the

524
00:29:48.799 --> 00:29:51.519
<v Speaker 2>poor people in Summerville, or it's five or ten cents

525
00:29:51.519 --> 00:29:53.119
<v Speaker 2>for a bag at the store. I mean, give me

526
00:29:53.160 --> 00:29:58.599
<v Speaker 2>a break. What's wrong is welcome to Massachusetts. They get

527
00:29:58.640 --> 00:30:01.319
<v Speaker 2>you coming and going just with this. They only tax

528
00:30:01.519 --> 00:30:03.839
<v Speaker 2>they only tax two things in Massachusetts, Phille.

529
00:30:04.279 --> 00:30:07.319
<v Speaker 9>But we're gonna fight them. We try to fight these people.

530
00:30:07.400 --> 00:30:10.920
<v Speaker 9>We kill. We kill the fourth of strangers coming in town.

531
00:30:11.319 --> 00:30:15.480
<v Speaker 9>Fourth of they my neighborhood.

532
00:30:17.160 --> 00:30:20.359
<v Speaker 2>Just remember this, Phil, We're lucky. They only they only

533
00:30:20.480 --> 00:30:23.880
<v Speaker 2>tax two things, anything that moves and anything that doesn't move.

534
00:30:24.359 --> 00:30:26.880
<v Speaker 9>They have speedbuts on the Allen deal Rose. I guess

535
00:30:26.880 --> 00:30:30.039
<v Speaker 9>it's nice of the fuck realized school, Savaria. They took

536
00:30:30.079 --> 00:30:32.359
<v Speaker 9>them down a few days because they people come playing.

537
00:30:32.640 --> 00:30:33.640
<v Speaker 9>They gottall if you.

538
00:30:33.799 --> 00:30:36.160
<v Speaker 2>If you're an ambulance trying to get someone to the hospital,

539
00:30:36.240 --> 00:30:38.200
<v Speaker 2>you don't need a lot of speed. Phil, I got

540
00:30:38.200 --> 00:30:40.000
<v Speaker 2>a round, I got people are backed up here, I

541
00:30:40.000 --> 00:30:44.559
<v Speaker 2>got full lives audios. Thank you, my friend. Let me

542
00:30:44.640 --> 00:30:49.079
<v Speaker 2>go next to Rosslyn and Maldon. Hi, Roslyn, How are you?

543
00:30:50.039 --> 00:30:50.920
<v Speaker 7>I'm fine? Thank you?

544
00:30:51.000 --> 00:30:51.480
<v Speaker 3>How are you?

545
00:30:52.079 --> 00:30:54.319
<v Speaker 2>I'm doing great. What do you think? I'm glad you

546
00:30:54.440 --> 00:30:57.039
<v Speaker 2>live in Maldon and not in Somerville. Please don't tell

547
00:30:57.079 --> 00:30:58.519
<v Speaker 2>me Maldon's doing the same thing.

548
00:31:00.000 --> 00:31:02.200
<v Speaker 7>As far as I know, Yes, I think we are

549
00:31:02.279 --> 00:31:06.039
<v Speaker 7>closed to shovel are sidewalks. But I don't think it

550
00:31:06.119 --> 00:31:09.319
<v Speaker 7>is six hours. I think it's I'm not sure. I

551
00:31:09.319 --> 00:31:12.000
<v Speaker 7>think it's either twelve or twenty four.

552
00:31:12.799 --> 00:31:17.440
<v Speaker 2>But have you shoveled your sidewalked in this week?

553
00:31:18.759 --> 00:31:21.839
<v Speaker 7>I wist certainly have. And one has to do it

554
00:31:21.880 --> 00:31:26.119
<v Speaker 7>before it freezes and becomes ice. And I also live

555
00:31:26.160 --> 00:31:29.480
<v Speaker 7>without I also live without a car, and I'm a

556
00:31:29.519 --> 00:31:33.079
<v Speaker 7>senior citizen, and so I think we need to see

557
00:31:33.079 --> 00:31:36.319
<v Speaker 7>this from the point of view of pedestrians. You know,

558
00:31:36.400 --> 00:31:38.759
<v Speaker 7>I walk to work, I have to walk to the tee,

559
00:31:39.119 --> 00:31:42.559
<v Speaker 7>I have to walk to groceries. I think homeowners do

560
00:31:42.720 --> 00:31:45.920
<v Speaker 7>their own snow shoubling, raking, mowing.

561
00:31:46.359 --> 00:31:50.319
<v Speaker 2>So your side, your spl just so I know, grossling,

562
00:31:50.559 --> 00:31:51.759
<v Speaker 2>your sidework is shoveled.

563
00:31:52.000 --> 00:31:53.559
<v Speaker 6>Good for you, Yes it is?

564
00:31:54.119 --> 00:31:56.680
<v Speaker 2>Yeah? How big? How long is your sidewalk? It's a

565
00:31:56.720 --> 00:31:57.759
<v Speaker 2>long sidewalk or.

566
00:31:59.559 --> 00:32:02.640
<v Speaker 7>Notably long. No, it's in front of a two family house.

567
00:32:03.400 --> 00:32:05.839
<v Speaker 2>Okay, Now, do you do it yourself or do you

568
00:32:06.039 --> 00:32:09.640
<v Speaker 2>find some local kid to and pay him a few bucks?

569
00:32:10.559 --> 00:32:13.119
<v Speaker 7>I do it myself. Once in a while a neighbor

570
00:32:13.240 --> 00:32:17.720
<v Speaker 7>will have done it with a snowblower before I get

571
00:32:17.759 --> 00:32:22.480
<v Speaker 7>out there, but I would. I'm always sure that it

572
00:32:22.519 --> 00:32:25.720
<v Speaker 7>gets done. So well, I'm happy.

573
00:32:25.759 --> 00:32:28.559
<v Speaker 2>Look, I'm happy for you. I just think that this

574
00:32:28.799 --> 00:32:34.200
<v Speaker 2>storm's this series of storms, particularly you know, the rain

575
00:32:34.279 --> 00:32:36.839
<v Speaker 2>and then it froze solid, and then it snowed, and

576
00:32:36.880 --> 00:32:40.799
<v Speaker 2>then you had ice. I mean, hats off to you, Rosslyn.

577
00:32:41.279 --> 00:32:43.240
<v Speaker 2>I can't argue with you. You must have been out

578
00:32:43.279 --> 00:32:50.240
<v Speaker 2>there right away. Hats off to you. I think it's

579
00:32:50.240 --> 00:32:53.039
<v Speaker 2>been a tough, tough set of storms to deal with

580
00:32:53.079 --> 00:32:56.759
<v Speaker 2>in the last few weeks. It's not your traditional yah snowstorm. Yeah.

581
00:32:56.759 --> 00:32:59.319
<v Speaker 2>So did you use rock salt and everything? Were you

582
00:32:59.359 --> 00:33:01.680
<v Speaker 2>able to use? Yeah? I assume did you use rock

583
00:33:01.720 --> 00:33:03.240
<v Speaker 2>salt and all that or just just.

584
00:33:05.839 --> 00:33:07.480
<v Speaker 7>Out the stores had run out?

585
00:33:08.200 --> 00:33:11.559
<v Speaker 2>Good for you, Rosslyn, Hats off to you. Okay. I

586
00:33:11.960 --> 00:33:14.039
<v Speaker 2>can't argue with you on this one, and I know

587
00:33:14.160 --> 00:33:18.680
<v Speaker 2>you didn't get fined, so that's good. Okay. Thank you, thanks,

00:33:56.359 --> 00:34:00.480
<v Speaker 6>sidewalks are usually in pretty good shape. But I also

598
00:34:00.559 --> 00:34:03.640
<v Speaker 6>wanted to mention that rock salt only melts down about

599
00:34:03.640 --> 00:34:09.039
<v Speaker 6>thirty degrees. We put it on ice. You know. Lately,

600
00:34:09.119 --> 00:34:13.239
<v Speaker 6>the it's been below thirty most every day, you know absolutely.

601
00:34:13.320 --> 00:34:14.960
<v Speaker 2>Let me ask you this when you talk about the

602
00:34:14.960 --> 00:34:17.360
<v Speaker 2>little I know, the little plows, the mini plows you're

603
00:34:17.400 --> 00:34:20.480
<v Speaker 2>talking about. I know that they have those like in

604
00:34:20.559 --> 00:34:24.840
<v Speaker 2>downtown areas. Do you live in the downtown area of Portsmouth?

605
00:34:24.880 --> 00:34:27.880
<v Speaker 2>Are you outside the city itself? And I'm not exactly

606
00:34:27.920 --> 00:34:33.800
<v Speaker 2>sure how how big portsmouths is as a cityhood. Did

607
00:34:33.800 --> 00:34:36.119
<v Speaker 2>they bring those plows out the neighborhoods?

608
00:34:36.679 --> 00:34:42.480
<v Speaker 6>Yeah, yeah, I'm about four about four miles from downtown

609
00:34:42.559 --> 00:34:44.559
<v Speaker 6>and then they plow. I mean they pile all the

610
00:34:44.639 --> 00:34:47.480
<v Speaker 6>sidewalks where I am out here.

611
00:34:48.039 --> 00:34:50.360
<v Speaker 2>But how did you ask us? How did they do that?

612
00:34:50.400 --> 00:34:51.519
<v Speaker 6>In pay?

613
00:34:53.679 --> 00:34:57.199
<v Speaker 2>Do you pay heavy duty real estate taxes up there

614
00:34:57.280 --> 00:34:59.239
<v Speaker 2>or what? How did they do that? That's pretty good.

615
00:35:00.159 --> 00:35:02.760
<v Speaker 6>A lot of people complain a lot of people complain

616
00:35:02.800 --> 00:35:05.599
<v Speaker 6>the matter. Real estate taxes are higher than mass Us.

617
00:35:05.800 --> 00:35:06.320
<v Speaker 9>I think.

618
00:35:07.880 --> 00:35:10.119
<v Speaker 6>I think they are more higher. I think they are

619
00:35:10.199 --> 00:35:14.599
<v Speaker 6>higher here in port than they are preventy summer availables

620
00:35:14.599 --> 00:35:15.440
<v Speaker 6>and more. I don't know.

621
00:35:16.199 --> 00:35:18.800
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, well, you know, if you pay a little extra

622
00:35:19.159 --> 00:35:22.159
<v Speaker 2>and you save some money on that, that's that's a

623
00:35:22.199 --> 00:35:25.119
<v Speaker 2>good thing. They always do things better in New Hampshire.

624
00:35:25.159 --> 00:35:27.480
<v Speaker 2>New Hampshire is a great state to live in. It's

625
00:35:27.519 --> 00:35:30.679
<v Speaker 2>a much No, I'm serious, you're you're blessed to be

626
00:35:30.719 --> 00:35:31.639
<v Speaker 2>living in New Hampshire.

<v Speaker 9>Yeah.

628
00:35:33.440 --> 00:35:36.119
<v Speaker 2>And a lot of people in Massachusetts are moving up there,

629
00:35:37.239 --> 00:35:37.760
<v Speaker 2>you know that.

630
00:35:39.960 --> 00:35:40.159
<v Speaker 3>Yeah.

631
00:35:40.480 --> 00:35:43.239
<v Speaker 6>Portsmouth does a lot of things we have, you know,

632
00:35:43.320 --> 00:35:46.880
<v Speaker 6>we have a higher higher real estate tax, but I

633
00:35:46.880 --> 00:35:48.519
<v Speaker 6>think we get a lot for the money.

<v Speaker 2>your thought.

643
00:36:15.679 --> 00:36:20.000
<v Speaker 6>No, I was gonna say, we always use the calcium

644
00:36:20.079 --> 00:36:25.000
<v Speaker 6>chloride when a construction for anything below thirty degrees to

645
00:36:25.119 --> 00:36:28.679
<v Speaker 6>melt the ice or keep the concrete from freezing and

646
00:36:28.760 --> 00:36:31.920
<v Speaker 6>all the ready mix and all that. Okay, gotcha, And

647
00:36:32.039 --> 00:36:36.719
<v Speaker 6>calcium chloride is much better, more money, but it works
