The following two letters were sent to the Poolesville Town Commissioners regarding the snow left at the end of a driveway after plowing. Both were also sent to the Monocle editor. What would you advise the commissioners on the subject of both emails?

I'd like to commend the town staff who did the plowing on Seneca Chase Park Road last night - it was the first time that my driveway was not covered back up with more snow than before :-)
Kudos to whoever did it right by plowing twice in BOTH directions, the second time with the blade facing AWAY from the driveway!

Attached is a picture from today's snow plowing showing the more typical result after plowing ... 1"-2" of light snow turns into 1'-2' of heavy snow chunks/ice left on the driveway.
I bring this to your attention on behalf of seniors (and soon-to-be seniors like myself), hoping there may be a way to alleviate this unintended consequence/burden ... shoveling 1-2" of snow is one thing, but lifting 1-2 foot chunks of ice/snow is something else.

If I was a commissioner I would tell the second writer to pound sand. There are boys in every neighborhood who are willing to work for five dollars.
