Simmons Slams Street Cleaning Boss as Czar of Dirt
Leo Simmons, a Washington excavating contractor, denounces the District’s street cleaning chief for enforcing a long standing ordinance to curb street dirt. He says the department’s overreach harms property owners and threatens to sue if work on his Stoughton street building is blocked. He accuses a New York importation of backing the official and defends his workers from arrests for minor dirt drops.
