Who decided that sidewalks must not have a few blades of grass, leaves, or a bit of dust?
And who decided that it doesn't matter how much destruction to the environment, the worker, resident, or passerby occurs to accomplish that? Better get those goddamn sidewalks spotless! No matter the cost!
I certainly never asked for this highly-destructive standard, but have to pay for it indirectly though rental/hoa fees. Even though, it is illegal in our city.
Several folks have brought up that new equipment is costly, but know what's cheaper? Stop doing it! Use a rake on the big pile and then quit! We had clean-enough sidewalks in the 80s. Just stop this bullshit.
