While the Old Mall continues to come down, the new $10 Mil Fire Station continues to be erected, exciting some and disappointing others.
As you can see, new pavement is being installed because the IDIOTS who designed the project FORGOT that heavy Fire Trucks would be traveling these streets. From my lips to your ears, Bull Sh*t! No one forgot a thing. They simply slammed this idea after the fact, (as they always do) because they didn't want you to know about this huge expense ahead of time.
Trailways is LOVING it because their huge buses across the street didn't have to fork up a penny for upgrades, NOR did the Cit Council and or Mayor ask them to pony up for it. Nope, it's all about taxpayer money and how quickly they can spend it.

So you're under the impression that Trailways would otherwise have been required to *pay* some fee for the necessary maintenance & upgrading of a municipal street?
Possibly I'm missing something, but I'm not really following you here.
The way City's work, (at times) they can ask that you participate in helping upgrade roads, especially if you have heavy vehicles.
In the case of the City of Salisbury, they charge taxes that should be enough to upgrade the infrastructure, yet you never see roads being upgraded or paved because Barrie spent ALL that money giving back developer reimbursements and TIF's, etc..
In this case, the road is being upgraded at additional taxpayer expense as they included the BOND money to be spend on the roads and NOT only the building they applied the Bond for.
Anyhow, I would have ASKED Trailways to help out. If they refused, that would be their right. You can't get something if you don't ask.
Allow me to give you ANOTHER example. The Zoo and their new request for $500,000.00..... Did the Council ask the County to participate???? Get my drift?
Looks Good!
Is this the first road paving project the city has participated in since the mayor has taken office? I may be wrong but I dont think the city has paved alot of their roads as they should be.
perhaps they were trying to avoid the costs of having to repair damages to their equipment and also speed up response times which would be a smart thing to do
They paved the road in front of the house Rinnier used to live in and the county paved the road T J Maloney lives in, only 2 I've seen paved for a long time.
