splions Posted September 27, 2022 Report Share Posted September 27, 2022 I accidentally picked the wrong weekend to go to Ocean City, MD when they had a a rally there a few years ago. The police were ready from bad experiences in the past. Fortunately my hotel room didn’t face the street.

Mike Posted October 4, 2022 Author Report Share Posted October 4, 2022 Right up **** Phil Murphy's alley. Lots of towns have banned landscapers use except for the fall and spring cleanups. Haven't banned personal homeowner blower, as far as I'm aware. richie c 1 "Depend not on fortune, but on conduct." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I talked about this in another thread. A bug company takes care of HOA condos in princeton. Contract is 1mm+. They are on their six set of batteries for the fleet. At the end of the day the contract price goes up bc takes longer and costs more in labor and material. So dumb Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mike Posted October 5, 2022 Author Report Share Posted October 5, 2022 I was busting the Maplewood town council's balls on this, demanding that they also ban snow blowers as equally dirty and loud and destroying the peacefulness of newly fallen snow. They wouldn't do that. There would be riots. "Depend not on fortune, but on conduct." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
