Having landed the Democratic Convention may protect Mayor Hickenlooper from the consequences Mayor McNichols paid for mismanaging snow removal. After all, we should be glad it will not be the Republican convention, as we will be spared demonstrations, riots, vandalism, “vomit-ins” etc. on the part of the morally superior. But it is somehow amazing that areas such as the streets around the south end of the DU campus still resemable Antarcticaj, complete with deep water and crevasses,while quiet streets of single family homes are being laboriously cleared. I requested that the section of Ogden that is the primary parking access for the 350-400 residents of Country Club Towers and Gardens be made passable for normal sized vehicles three different times and three different ways. I was informed that the situation had been handled—in a paraliel uniiverse, perhaps. The ice is still there. Perhaps the good mayor could be inveighed upon to give the local population of able-bodied homeless males shovels rather than real estate.
