Comments for Mayor Declares a State of Emergency in Scarsdale - All Driving is Prohibited at http://www.scarsdale10583.com , comment 1 to 9 out of 9 comments http://www.scarsdale10583.com Tue, 21 May 2013 07:35:21 +0100 FeedCreator 1.7.3 http://www.scarsdale10583.com/201210292795/today-s-news/mayor-declares-a-state-of-emergency-in-scarsdale-all-driving-is-prohibited.html#comment-5517 With schools closed, wouldn't it be wonderful to see our young people reach out to their elderly neighbors who may need help clearing their driveways, getting some hot food, and some extra blankets as they wait for professional help to restore their power and mobility? Our kids whose parents sometimes spend thousands of dollars on distant community service opportunities, can do much to help right here in Scarsdale, giving them a purpose other than bemoaning the absence of Internet and cell service. - Ruth Raisfeld Wed, 31 Oct 2012 10:06:57 +0100 http://www.scarsdale10583.com/201210292795/today-s-news/mayor-declares-a-state-of-emergency-in-scarsdale-all-driving-is-prohibited.html#comment-5513 So is trick or treating on or off for tonight? Would prefer a reschedule to Sunday but if that's not happening guess we'd go tonight. - Halloween question Wed, 31 Oct 2012 05:23:43 +0100 http://www.scarsdale10583.com/201210292795/today-s-news/mayor-declares-a-state-of-emergency-in-scarsdale-all-driving-is-prohibited.html#comment-5506 Anyone else without power in Greenacres? We lost ours around 6ish and notice dark houses as far as I can see. - In the dark Mon, 29 Oct 2012 14:11:07 +0100 http://www.scarsdale10583.com/201210292795/today-s-news/mayor-declares-a-state-of-emergency-in-scarsdale-all-driving-is-prohibited.html#comment-5502 I wouldn't want to be Mayor. - citygal Mon, 29 Oct 2012 11:01:07 +0100 http://www.scarsdale10583.com/201210292795/today-s-news/mayor-declares-a-state-of-emergency-in-scarsdale-all-driving-is-prohibited.html#comment-5500 Lighten up, folks. This is a very serious storm, and our Mayor may have some information that we aren't privy to. Let's give her a little bit of leeway and latitude, shall we? - Scarsdale Denizen Mon, 29 Oct 2012 09:21:14 +0100 http://www.scarsdale10583.com/201210292795/today-s-news/mayor-declares-a-state-of-emergency-in-scarsdale-all-driving-is-prohibited.html#comment-5498 That is absurd! I further declare that all vehicular travel and parking on any street within the village of Scarsdale is hereby prohibited until the State of Emergency has ended. - Concerned Scarsdale Resident Mon, 29 Oct 2012 08:54:09 +0100 http://www.scarsdale10583.com/201210292795/today-s-news/mayor-declares-a-state-of-emergency-in-scarsdale-all-driving-is-prohibited.html#comment-5497 Our neighborhood asked if the mayor if she would reschedule halloween trick or treating and she said "no." Drake Edgewood neighborhood association is going ahead with an alternate date if the storm continues. - Halloween Mon, 29 Oct 2012 08:31:12 +0100 http://www.scarsdale10583.com/201210292795/today-s-news/mayor-declares-a-state-of-emergency-in-scarsdale-all-driving-is-prohibited.html#comment-5496 Seems a bit over-stated: "all vehicular travel and parking on any street within the village of Scarsdale is hereby prohibited." Especially along with the statement that all Village employees are at work. How are they supposed to go home - walk? Too often government directives are unrealistically worded and create anxiety for those who might have to drive, albeit with increased risk and caution. - Michael Otten Mon, 29 Oct 2012 08:26:59 +0100 http://www.scarsdale10583.com/201210292795/today-s-news/mayor-declares-a-state-of-emergency-in-scarsdale-all-driving-is-prohibited.html#comment-5495 What's the Mayor going to do next, cancel Halloween? Oh, wait, she did that last year! - The Grinch Mon, 29 Oct 2012 07:03:08 +0100
