Baltimore's poor snow removal efforts ("Once again, the county beats the city on snow removal," Jan. 30) are just the tip of the iceberg and a reflection of city leadership. The only conclusion one can reasonably make is that there is little work ethnic, no measurement and assessment of performance and pervasive bad attitudes by city employees. This, when combined with lack of management oversight and leadership at the top to incentivize to hold people accountable, makes for bad snow removal and deterioration of overall services. High taxes and the lack of services drive people away from Baltimore. Let's vote for people who commit to lower taxes and transforming the huge, unproductive workforce.
