...at the rec center on Coliseum Boulevard. There were about 25 citizens in attendance. When Diane asked for those who serve on boards etc... to be recognized, about half the room rose, while the other half clapped. I would say there were at least five city employees were there. A fellow from the Zoning Commission was there as I recall as well.
A gentleman in front of me with a helmet on the seat next to him brought up bicycle safety, and while doing so identified the city's road conditions as problematic relative to the overall number of potholes, cracks etc...
Denise responded by informing us Greensboro's roads were considered in "poor" condition, or rated "poor" or something along the lines of not in good shape. She told us, Alex Jacobson from the Rhino was behind me, that our city's road maintenance was deprioritized in the budget to the benefit of some undefined priorities which received money and/or debt allocated elsewhere.
Where was the money prioritized to, and who suggested and voted to sacrifice the quality of our roadways for what?
If some end up needing alignments because our government didn't do what is supposed to, I believe that the auto bills may be a form of taxation imposed to the benefit of unnecessary "priority".
