Supposedly this is in aid of keeping standing water out of the road. There has never been an issue with this in front of my house. But that did not stop them from taking 2&#8242;-4&#8242; off the front of my lawn with a big scrapper. I do understand the state has a certain amount of right away, but this is ridiculous. I now have a big, ugly, barren swath of dirt in front of my house. A friend says the DOT will come back through and make this look better. I totally have my doubts about this &#8230; and I&#8217;m really having to fight the urge to reseed this section with grass RIGHT NOW.
