| Hi
Ted! -- Just wanted to let you know that we made the decision to
close down the Farmers' Market this year. We were sad to
have to do it but basically just don't have the vendors anymore
(I'm sure you noticed that when passing by!). But I want to thank
you for all the publicity you have given the market over the past
years - you did an outstanding job for us! -- Melinda Marsh (2/28/2011) |

with the extreme winter weather event this past week. City Services
are striving to return to a level of normalcy. Sanitation crews
began intermittent trash pick ups on Thursday February 4th with
limited success. Friday February 5th is proving more successful
however normal trash routes are impossible at this time. The city

the trucks access to commercial dumpsters as well as contracting
heavy equipment services to clear neighborhoods. Weather permitting
normal scheduled trash routes will begin on Monday February 7th,

I'm
using these snow days to clear driveway (home) and sidewalk (museum)
and make progress on 2011 Senior pages. I keep taking photos of
snow scenes but since it looks the same out the front window of
every Collinsville residence see no reason to put more online. Not
a single person has responded to my quest for an "official"
or at least reasonable Collinsville snow fall estimate. I concur
with Brad's comment (below) on the city doing a great job on the
streets so far. It will be interesting to see how we all deal with
the next phase of cleanup given the magnitude of snow as school
and businesses try to return to "normal". -- Ted Wright

Department for the outstanding job they have done on our streets
the past few days. Thanks to all of you, we were able to at least
get one truck out on the second day and two today to get to our
customers that did not have heat. I’ve even seen our City trucks
in the outlying neighborhoods today! Our streets are in better shape
than 169, HWY 20, and Owasso’s streets and I’ve had to
drive on all of them! So once again thanks to all of you for all

called back ~2:30pm Tuesday and said Cyclone Yasi was now
a category 5 and she and Tyler would soon leave for a friend's
(brick) house that would hopefully be outside the storm surge
area of Townsville with just a few hour before it was expected
to hit. She said it was likely power would be out for several
days but she would report when she could after the storm passes.
