Municipalization is a neatly bold idea which I think would be wildly popular given PGE & NW Natural's audacity regarding Forest Park & Natural Gas greenwashing. I think autoluw superblocks could work for many neighborhoods, also with the old trolleys back!

I actually asked that it be indicated that the bus was a shuttle to a shareholders meeting, but it didn't make it into the piece. Tibs is otherwise a friend to public transit: #TibsArt
England's special needs education costs have now hit £10 billion each year.

The "historic character" of it shouldn't even be in the conversation, whether it's the history of racing, livestock auctions or green space. Today is what matters. What is this neighborhood like today? What do we need today, right now? Not Nashville. This neighborhood. Hint: it's not NASCAR racing.
“What they’re showing in this one project is just the beginning of a potentially massive transformation of Central Virginia. This is not a marginal conversation [on] how you feel about aesthetics. This is about an investment in heavy infrastructure that’s going to change the landscape of Virginia.”
Instead of sending all of the millions in revenue from red light and speed cameras to the police budget to hire more officers to write more parking/speeding tickets, FW could invest in a street design that prevents unsafe behavior in the first place. Then they would yell I’m defunding the police.
Cleveland's committee just greenlit a plan to channel $7.5 million in state demolition funds directly into the city's demolition efforts, promising to tackle blight and create local jobs! Click to read more! #ClevelandCuyahogaCounty #OH #CitizenPortal #CommunityDevelopment #ClevelandDemolition
Likely policing / permit costs combined with hits to revenue (which have affected basically all nonprofits in the last few years) Even if they have the collapsible barriers and you don't need a whole dump trucks / a city engineering crew to bring out jersey barriers, you need a few weekend staff.
I didn’t say that Brendan Dawe was “in bed with developers.” Brendan Dawe posted a thread presenting himself as someone whose interest in the project was purely as a West End resident, but his posts struck me as odd since they had more to do with broader policy issues, much like yours…

I will also say: these kinds of bad will gestures by large landlords are the kinds of things that NIMBYs bring to city meetings and I am not justifying NIMBYism but I am saying that neighbor badwill by the large corporate landlords up the street was a big reason for opposition to this building.
Are not maintained and not the maintenance staffs fault in most cases. They do not maintain a secured property in most cases and should not be rewarded with rent for well beyond 30 years when the mortgage on homes max at 30 years. Then when it is a building that was paid through HUD grants the

Because no one could get CDOT to care about the Darrow Bridge, they are spending 1.2 million to pave "desire lines" from the east parking. It's not "restoration" if it never existed. Also no $ to fix the Nancy Hayes Bridge, that desperately needs it. 1/n blockclubchicago.org/2026/03/02/j...
