Flowers And Plants, At What Cost To The City?


One can only wonder if there will come a time when they will choose to also close down Isabella Street too in order to water the plants?

I know these guys are doing what they're told to do, I'm cool with that. However, there are many businesses on the Downtown Plaza that use the side street just off the Plaza and only accessible from the Plaza to park their vehicles for the day. When they attempt to get into work, the road is closed off to anyone and everyone for a good two hours, twice a week.

Yesterday, a couple was seen ONCE AGAIN on the Downtown Plaza stealing the cash out of the Fountain in front of 47 News. Witnesses stood there watching the female acting as a lookout while the guy took off his shirt and climbed right into the Fountain and stripped if of the cash that is normally used as donations to local non profit organizations.

I asked this witness if she called the Police and like so many other people that have seen this, she felt bad for the guy in such need for the money. So Chiefy, how's that Camera working for you at that end of the Plaza? Can you come back to us and positively identify this young man and woman? Please do show us that having these cameras strategically placed where you seem to see fit is working for us Taxpayers?

After all, that's about the highest crime the Downtown Plaza has seen in several years, besides the graffiti.

Anyhow, the plants are watered, the Fountains no longer work, (none of them) you can't find or access parking on the Plaza, the cash in the Fountains is gone and the Cameras seem to be useless. Yep, the management and security of this City simply sucks.

  3. I just (at 2:45 pm, Wednesday) attempted to go thru the Plaza only to see that it is (again) barricaded against traffic. It appeared as though someone was watering a little further up Main St.
