Mayor Mendenhall,
The tinderbox that is our city right now is one match away from burning down our neighborhoods. Spend some money, get some crews from the private sector or within the city and clean up the tree debris. Do your job and manage our city after our extreme weather event. I haven’t seen one crew in any neighborhood cleaning up the streets, which feels like mismanagement.
