Cicilline to announce storm review findings tomorrow

Providence Mayor David N. Cicilline tomorrow afternoon will announce the results of a review of the city's response to last Thursday's snow storm, his office says.

Cicilline ordered Police Chief Dean Esserman and Chief of Administration John Simmons to conduct a review after about 100 schoolchildren were stuck for hours on stranded city school buses.

During the 1 p.m. news conference, Cicilline will also announce steps the city plans to take to ensure that schoolchildren make it home safely under any circumstances, his office says.

Cicilline's news conference comes before the City Council hold its own review. The Council has scheduled a special meeting for 6 p.m. tomorrow to question department directors about the city's response to the storm.
