Tis The Season

With the Holiday's just around the corner, I thought it might be nice to get everyone out there to send me a digital photo of their holiday decorations. This would not be a contest as to who is better than the rest. It's about changing the tone of our communities into where things ought to be this time of year. Send your photos to, alberobutzo@wmconnect.com .

Is Salisbury Truly Prepared For The Handicapped?

As I travel around the City daily I am overwhelmed by the amount of traffic on the main roads with the handicapped. Not long ago we read a story about one of these individuals being hit and killed by an automobile and I have to tell you Folks, it's only going to get worse.

With another 4 murders in desperate need of resolution still lying out there for the Salisbury Police Department to solve, I'm sure these violations are of minimal concern to the Police Chief. Nevertheless, they are important.

Flags that go at least 6 feet into the air are a necessity. Lights and reflectors on these wheels of transportation are a necessity. I also don't understand why they don't use sidewalks when the City has spent so much money renovating the curbs to meet their needs? All too often I see these guys in the streets, acting like they are automobiles.

WalMart & Sam's Club are loaded with these motorized vehicles and it's like watching a cat fight whenever they start running short on these things. I've even seen children driving them around with their parents.

I can only hope someone starts enforcing more strict rules as to who can use them, where they can be driven and what will happen to you if you break the rules. The safety of these Citizens come first, not the driver of a vehicle with air bags.

There is evidence in a big way that the handicapped are increasing locally, far more so than many, many years ago when they started gaining more rights to access. I just don't think Salisbury is anywhere near ready or up to code to provide the proper lifestyle these people deserve as Citizens.

Now don't get me wrong Folks. I'm not at all knocking the City for where it stands at this point and time. I have personally seen Public Works out there making changes for the better. More work needs to be done, that's all.

Welcome Again To The Downtown Plaza

Yes, the City of Salisbury does in fact have a daily crew that works the Downtown Plaza each and every day and this is what they leave behind. Oh, there was plenty more but I didn't want to be petty.

Barrie, you can't control all the trash on the river inside the Zoo, that's been proven. Now it is proven you can even keep your crew cleaning up the Plaza on a regular basis. Are you a bit out of control any more Barrie?

Why don't you just get it over with and blame it all on the Blogs? It's our fault things are falling apart, right Barrie? How about you try this one on for size?

It's the Blogs that have the big ones to stand up to you Barrie and expose the wrongs. I just can't wait to read more about how it's all our fault.
