Willy replied to XLFD's discussion Lies Wide Open: Officials Mangle the Truth About Ludington Road Diet"Do any of the studies mention curb side parking? This is a big factor in how smoothly traffic flows. It's obvious that 5 lanes can easily handle vehicles that are continually entering and leaving curb side parking spaces. 3 lanes is quite the…"

Why are all the public officials in Manistee reluctant to give out any of the details of the stabbing death of Bruce Schaub this last Tuesday, August 8th? They do note that his wife has been arraigned on open murder charges and is in jail without bond, however, there is no indication of why they believe she did it, no release of any of the records concerning the crime, and no official willing to disseminate anything more, as shown in a Friday press conference that revealed nothing new.

stump replied to XLFD's discussion Diary of a Ludington Traffic Counter"I think the road to Abilene does compare with our city council. Ideas are put forth by Shay and the council just goes along with it without question. I don't think they read their meeting package to even question items that are on the agenda.…"
XLFD replied to XLFD's discussion Diary of a Ludington Traffic Counter"City leaders have voiced some benefits of the road diet over the years, including but not limited to:
improve the parking situation on the avenue with increased spots and safety,
slow down traffic going through the downtown so they will be more…"
XLFD replied to XLFD's discussion Diary of a Ludington Traffic Counter"Thanks for introducing the Abilene Paradox to me Stump, and thanks for the explanatory video, Willy. I never heard of that before, but there is a similar thing working at Ludington City Hall which often leads to city officials cooperating on…"
Willy replied to XLFD's discussion Diary of a Ludington Traffic Counter"Thanks for the information stump. I had never heard of the Abilene Paradox. After looking up the term on the internet I'm inclined to believe that this Paradox does not fit this situation only because of the history of decision making by…"
stump replied to XLFD's discussion Diary of a Ludington Traffic Counter"Years ago I was at a seminar where the speaker talked about the road to Abilene, [ Abilene paradox ] This might be the situation here. We see it all the time with our city council."
stump replied to XLFD's discussion Diary of a Ludington Traffic Counter"In a recent visit to our neighboring town of Whitehall to the south of us it looks like they did some street reconstruction recently. It seems they widened the roadway and narrowed the sidewalks. Not sure of that but main street sure looked…"
Willy replied to XLFD's discussion Diary of a Ludington Traffic Counter"Something just doesn't seem right regarding this traffic diet situation. Why do people want this lane reduction? Has any City official stated an opinion based on logic because I see no logical reason for it. Maybe a small town like Scottville…"

- What I don't understand about the shop with a cop program is where you come up with the $900 plus amount that is not accounted for. Also why is the same $250 card number on two separate receipts? I'm not very good with math and bookkeeping so I'm curious.
