Grant funding available for downtown improvements
PrinceGeorgeCitizen 13Spruce up downtown with the drug induced homeless issue staring them in the face. What planet are these people from? The first issue to be addressed is to get rid of the drug induced homeless and theft issues. Flower beds and new lighting won't fix the problems downtown.

PG RCMP head recommends longer shifts, body cameras for bylaw officers
PrinceGeorgeCitizen 11Is adding more hours, people, and cameras going to solve the problems in downtown PG. Sounds more like a tax increase for the homeowner. Have a look at the congregation of druggies on the street near the legion and the mass of druggies in the lane behind the legion. All city council has done is spent a lot of taxpayer money closing down moccasin flats and shifting the problem to downtown PG. Previously there were a few fires at moccasin flats that destroyed a few make shift shelter but now the druggies have shifted to downtown business get burned and employees are out of work. Not sure if anyone would agree that closing the flats has resulted in an improvement in downtown PG.

Civic Core Plan concept council approved could jeopardize future of Spruce Kings
PrinceGeorgeCitizen 8Not sure what these dudes are smoking. Their proposal is to rip down Kopar arena which has seating for about 1500 and build a new arena with seating for 4500 and also develop a park on the same foot print. Anyone who has even been at Kopar realizes the existing foot print is quite small and their is no excess room.Forget the downtown and build at rink near the CN center and Kins where their is better access and parking. Council has already built the new pool in the wrong spot and now they want to waste more millions trying to drag the citizens of PG to the downtown cesspool.

Fencing starts going up around Moccasin Flats
PrinceGeorgeCitizen 2Hand digging fence post holes. Someone inform the city power augers have been available for years, unless the city does not want to make noise and wake up the residents of the flats.Also a single axle truck with sides is not considered a flat bed truck. Trash bins might be more appropriate.
