South of the city, past Cutlerville toward Byron Center, the subdivisions still back onto open field, and February wind gets a long clean run at them. Dykema Snowplow Services plows out where the drifting is worst — cutting driveways open, widening the apron at the road, clearing the walk from the step to the mailbox. Ice control goes down on the shaded turns and the north-facing stoops that never quite thaw. The work happens at hours nobody wants and shows up as something plain: a car that pulls out on time. That is the point of it.
