Winter Walking and Cycling

According to this article from the CBC, updated yesterday, the City of Kitchener has received 2,145 complaints for uncleared sidewalks this winter. I wonder if the call centre and bylaw will be able to put an estimated cost on listening to, logging, and following up on all of these complaints. That sounds like it must be a lot of staff time, and tax dollars.

Oh, the cost will be low, they have only a few officers, which means they basically take days maybe more than a week to get through the back log.  Just one more way in which bylaw is a sad joke of a solution.
