Trucks on North Beach ...

Anyone know what's going on with the trucks on and around North Beach? One reader wrote to say he thought the trucks may be dumping snow into the water. We haven't checked it out yet. Anyone know if this true?

  4. The City seems to be overdoing it a little with the snow removal on so many streets. This stuff will eventually melt, folks....

  6. Oakes was still working yesterday behind Gateway dumping snow. The question is why now isnt the city doing this themselves? How long will major roads like Douglas and Rapids Drive be one lane?

  7. Douglas Ave and Rapids Dr are not one lane.

  8. Initial source on this story had it wrong. The city (and Oakes) aren't hauling snow to North Beach. Apparently, they're hauling snow to Pritchard Park. A few people are wondering why they're not dumping on North Beach, but given all of the contaminants in snow it seems environmentally sound to use Pritchard Park as a collection point.

  12. People, where do you think melted snow goes? Whether it melts in the street or it melts at Pershing Park, it eventually ends up in the lake. And guess what? This happened even before Becker was mayor.

  14. This is not true. Snow has been dumped in the north beach parking lot, but not on the beach itself.

    As of Fri eve 2/11 Douglas Ave near Douglas Park heading north is still not two full lanes each way. Hard to believe since this is supposed to be a highway.
