Tourism bucks are always good for a community, BUT, everyone also tends to forget there do tend to me negative impacts on the year round locals. I know this first hand because tourism and agriculture are the major industries of my area.
I just got finished shoveling the driveway behind my SUV including the 5-foot berm the snow plow left. Just as I finished the snow plow came by and left a 2-foot berm. I was able to shovel it away before it froze into a solid mass. The official reporting for my area shows the heaviest snow in the state with 40 inches accumulation. I piled the snow on the front garden area where I have an apple, 5 blueberry and 2 nanking cherries planted. The snow will melt and help keep the ground wet down deep after the ground freezes and prevents drainage later in the winter.
