Newark was hit with more than two feet of snow. Please let us know about the City of Newark's response to the storm. Let us know what street you live on, what time it was plowed and whether it is passable now. We'll forward any complaints about streets not being plowed directly to administration of Mayor Ras Baraka. We'll compile this information so we know what the problems areas are for the next storm and work with the administration to better address these areas.

Those of us who drive to work, can’t. Because of the wind, the snow on South 7 was no deeper than any other storm I’ve seen in Newark since arriving in 2008. Something is very wrong here…
Fifth teen years dealing with snow not be removed from the sidewalk on city
owned lot and property. Unfortunately I’m in the middle of city owned property and a vacant lot from next door to the corner of my property. Please bailed me out of the blizzard. Thanking you in advance.
One plow apparently came through, during the storm, clearing just one car width on a two-way street, although there were no cars parked on the street from my house to Abington. By Saturday night, there was additional snowfall, never cleared. The street is now nearly impassable and dangerous. Cars are getting stuck on the snow and ice, and I would not attempt to drive on the street as is, and so can not get to work. Hoping for some help, please!
Tracked the trucks ever since storm started : not sure if it was deliberate or politics or puppetry .
You need a survey to do this? Why don’t you drive around the neighborhood and see for yourself the sorry state of things in your district? The neighborhood that apparently, so they say, pay the most in property taxes, does not even deserve a decent snow plowing. I envy the Jersey City residents—nay, even the residents of the City of Passaic, who, the day after a snowstorm, the streets are possible even in the poorest neighborhoods.
In the Forest Hill neighborhood of the City of Newark, which also has the highest water rates in the country it seems, just pay your taxes, and don’t expect any services in return!!!
