Snow Removal: No Improvement!
We were disappointed to see that the snow removal for the most recent snow storm was performed with the same problems as previously, without any improvements.
1. The sidewalks are blocked by snow bancs created by the snow removal. Access to the bus shelter is made very difficult.

2. Several lampposts are broken following the snow removal. Worse, a complete row of lampposts is non-functional, which could be a major electrical issue.

The light still works but not the lid
The snow accumulations in the way of the tenants, the broken lampposts significantly reducing visibility in the evening, are recurring risks for tenants. Moreover, Rockhill must continually repair the broken lampposts and may potentially face fines from the city for their contractors obstructing the public side walk and shelter.
3. Snow is not being removed from the stairs behind building A:
We urge the Rockhill administration to change suppliers due to the complete lack of improvements, despite several warnings that have been given to them!
