Mayor's Snow Stuff

Mayor Daniel T. Drew has issued the following related to the snow storm that is affecting the State of Connecticut and the City of Middletown.


  • A parking ban is in effect for all city streets
  • All city parking lots are open for off street parking
  • The warming center at South Church will be on the following schedule:
  • Friday Feb. 8 5:00pm – 7:00am Saturday
  • Saturday Feb. 9 8:00pm – 7:00am Sunday
  • At this time the shelter at Middletown High School is not open

    Shouldn't that be "plough" crews?

    Gleeson Rd. has not been plowed since Fri. 5pm. If emergency vehicles need to pass, the city is libel.

    @Durant
    As someone who grew up in Westfield and went to Middletown public schools, I'm glad you're moving out.

      @JP. Just as I figured. Under 30, with no kids in MP Schools above 6th grade.

    Nothing on Markham Street as of 9:30a on Sunday. I understand that they are overwhelmed, but I still wish I wasn't stranded.

    Lorelei Circle off Stevens Lane has not seen a plow at all by noon Sunday. I don't even know who to complain to about it! Public Works is not answering their phone. Any idea who to call?

    Sunday afternoon on Fowler Ave and no plow since Friday. Fowler and Ridge usually see plows every couple hours as they seem to serve as through streets to other neighborhoods. I hope we can get out for work tomorrow.

    The sooner everyone realizes you can't count on any government agency to help you during disasters, the better off everyone will be. Call your neighbors, friends, co-workers and band together to help each other out. That's the only way you'll ever survive. Just look at all the past disasters in this state and in the country and tell me what any government did for you in a timely fashion!

    Don't you people get it? We just got THREE FEET of snow. One foot is considered a major storm. While you're at it, you might as well blame the mayor for Pearl Harbor.
