Quincy Quarry News circled back around to check the city’s books as regards snow removal spending this winter and so found yellow snow. A lot of code yellow snow.
Spending on snow expenses duly accounted as of after lunchtime yesterday is currently running 172% over budget year to date with a month to go before snow storms become unlikely.
In other words, going upwards of 100% over budget on snow removal during Fiscal Year 2026 is possible if not likely.
In turn, in dollars over to date, figure $1,597,160.01 over budget so far and thus 76% further overbudget as of just last Thursday.
In other words, ending up running $2 million overbudget or even more on a $2,224,860.00 budget is surely possible this fiscal year, if not also looking likely.
