One week later, the street department is clearing the heck out of certain crosswalks.

Last week.

Sounds overly complicated to me. The City Hall employee who parodies me at Twitter reads what we're saying at NAC. It is relayed to the mayor, who passes it along to Warren & the Bored of Works, which sends a carrier pigeon to the street department, and voila -- a clean crosswalk, only one week later.

It might be simpler if we were City Hall.

Hmm ...
