‘Shoe’ kicks off election campaign

I appreciate Shoemakers dedication, however i believe SSM needs a more fiscally responsible Mayor, and entire council for that matter. Raising taxes should not be the solution year after year.

The residential streets don't need to be scraped down often. So for the 2 or 3 times a season this is done, there should be a payloader behind the grader to scoop up the ice at the end of each drive way and drop it on people's front lawns. It doesnt take much effort. The city used to do this, im not sure why this has changed, especially considering our taxes have gone up every year... if the city are short staff, im sure they can subcontract this work to a local contractor, it might even be cheaper this way anyways.

This is the result of poor asphalt/road design/road construction that has been happening for years. City cheaps out on lowest bid, and now they pay the price.

Since Ledcor has won the highway maintenance contract, it's been disastrous. Im surprised at the lack of maintenance in some areas and why the MTO doesn't step in and demand repairs.

City councillors to discuss new Dacey-Trunk intersection
SooToday
30
With the increased density of townhouse units that have been developed along and around Dacey (almost 100 units so far) im surprised the city did not anticipate the increased traffic. The developper is responsible for conducting traffic studies as supporting documentation for any zoning/development/subdivision plans. It is also the developers responsibility to pay for road/intersection upgrades as a result. In this case there are multiple issues at hand with regards to connection to Rankin area and students crossing trunk road, but regardless, the developer should be pitching in, it shouldn't be 100% tax payer funded.

I wouldnt be able to park on my street anyways, the city has not yet cut the banks down all winter. My Road looks like a goat path, with nowhere for the water to drain, causing freeze thaws and ultimately potholes.

The only way to get in and out of the mall/bay street will be near Gore/Andrew street near Wendy's, or coming down Bay from Huron Street. What a mess
