Let's remove signs as soon as possible
Now that the election is over maybe the politicos and sponsors of other issues will remove all of those ugly signs plastered everywhere you look or are we going to have those swell looking signs up for another month or so? Does anyone ever read those signs? The only one I ever read is held by someone in front of the courthouse criticizing a detective. What does that mean? Who is this guy and who, pray tell, is that detective and why is he so bad? If all of our local business owners decided to put up small ugly paper signs about their businesses all over town, I wonder how long it would be before our city officials would start issuing citations along with substantial fines for off premises signs?
Reflective paint would ease traffic problems
There is a major effort to solve our traffic accident problems on Highway 95 and Highway 2 by spending massive amounts of money to correct the "design defects." I have noticed that the highway department doesn't use reflective line striping paint like most states do. This inexpensive change would allow people to see which lane they are in and where the edge of the road is when the roads have been sanded or wet. All the spending in the world will not stop people who drive when they shouldn't but for those who can't see well. The reflective paint will help a lot and will not destroy our budget.
