Bikes & Liars, SF City Council Public input Sep 12, 2017
l3wis Well here we go again, someone dies and our town’s marketing manager in chief only worries about how long he has to sit at a traffic light. Somehow this manager doesn’t take into consideration a reason no one else has died at 10th and Minnesota is the residual knowledge left from years of being forced to stop.
“But by gosh, golly gee, we gotta get moving, I can’t waste 22 seconds waiting for a darn light change” he says. Just listen to him in the video we posted from the presser ( https://youtu.be/SxlxMbY3WnY ) as he tries to justify risking lives at intersections just because they are not in a car.
The Falls Area Bicyclist club members showed up to plead their case to an uncaring administration, trying to help them care. Watch the MayorCam as they talk on September 12, 2017 at the Sioux Falls City Council Public Input and see how unmoved the leader is. This is just another example of what we can expect over the next 7 months. An uncaring administration when it comes to public safety. The bikers need to show up and stick around for the entire meeting to see how the process does and doesn’t work so they can help change it.
Our blog leader Scott spoke about the Arc of Dreams and the lack of information the city is willing to share about the process of getting it approved before it is built. Another item we heard about at the Tuesday Informational is the mongo savings account setup with proceeds of the increased water fees and the recently borrowed money giving the city the ability to pay off the Lewis and Clark bonds early. So much for the enterprise funds and reserves being touch and go. Oh and speaking of liars, how about the Parks Director Kearney first saying there was no such thing as a no-mow list then handing one out? Liars, why does this administration have to run on lies?
