Neighbor's complaint was a real snow job

| February 27, 2008 8:00 PM

This letter is in reference to Ms. January Roberts' rant about snow being dumped one lot away from the apartment she rents. Instead of being criticized, her neighbor should be praised and applauded for allowing her vacant lots to be used for dumping snow during this difficult snow season.

As for the charge that snow is being hauled from another county, this is patently absurd and the ultimate in a “carrying coals to Newcastle” story. This snow comes from other areas in the city of Sandpoint.

Perhaps Ms. Roberts should tend to her own business instead of harassing men (the alcohol charge was false, as verified by the police) who are merely trying to do their job and for criticizing her neighbor for being a good and helpful citizen.
