Further, we have no salt/sand trucks, we have no plows, we have zero civic infrastructure to meant to deal with our very occasional ice storm or light snow. It happens so infrequently that there's no way to justify spending taxpayers' money to prepare in that way for those kinds of situations.

I never understood the mentality of "it only happens every couple of years so we'll never prepare for it" It's not like Georgia is spending that money on other public services like railways
