These back to back storms have definitely put a significant demand on our resources as our men, equip- ment, and snow budget have been pushed rather hard lately. Once again though, our dedicated men at the Department of Public Works have earned our gratitude and respect by their steadfast work in keeping our roads clear. It is important that resi- dents and business owners do their part by keeping the sidewalks clear so our children and other pedestrians can safely get around. -Sea Cliff Mayor Bruce Kennedy
