I'm all for cleaning up the snow...in fact, just a few days ago I was saying they should periodically ban street parking block by block for an hour or two so that they could plow the edges of the road...
What you probably shouldn't do is announce a snow emergency after everyone has left work, only advertise this on the local news a few hours prior to it taking effect, not call out the streets that are being plowed, and not put any signs up on any of those streets.
That's how you tow 250+ cars and piss a lot of people off...
Now, I'm not saying that it's not my fault...I even noticed there were less cars on the street than usual when I parked....but when 250+ cars get towed in one night on one street, you obviously did a piss-poor job of getting the word out.
Congratulations, milwaukee, you've won a ton of extra city funding...but I suppose, then, it's this sort of thing that results in distrust and contempt for public officials among the average joe.
