Remember the sidewalk sweepers?

In NE Detroit we used to pay a contractor to plow the snow on sidestreets and sidewalks. Detroit never provided plowing as a service to residents. The only plowing the City did was on main streets or bus routes.

I remember those jeeps, was just thinking about them yesterday. I believe it was a contract service, now that you jog my memory. I think we paid something like $30 in the 60s for the service. I'm not sure if that was for the month or for the season.
