West Point City Sanitation

About West Point City Sanitation

West Point City Sanitation runs the same routes through town no matter the weather, and after a snow that means trucks out before the courthouse square is more than a gray shape in the dark, working street by street until Main Street and the neighborhoods around it are passable again. The Elkhorn River curls along the edge of town, and on the coldest mornings a low mist sometimes rises off it and drifts into the streets nearest the water. Municipal work has a rhythm residential plowing doesn't: the same loop, the same order, storm after storm, because the whole town depends on it lining up the same way each time. A cleared street in front of the school or the courthouse by first light means the town simply opens on schedule, without anyone having to think about how that happened. It's steady, repeated work, and the reward is mostly invisible: a town that just runs.
