Middle school parking lot

[Harvey Mungaknuts]

So what is up with the big fancy gate on the parking lot that had until recently been blocked off with just an orange cone.  More money on the unnecessary.

Such a lovely gate blocking absolutely nothing! Didn’t understand the point of it either

It was probably put there to make people go through the light. To much of a problem with people pulling out of two places within 50 yards. But it was a waste of money put grass down. I believe when schools or towns spend taxpayer money it should be voted on at meetings. Only thing s that are emergency should be taken care of without asking. This is why it taxes are higher. There is no accounting for what money gets spent on. Schools or government!!!

Totally agree. Way better options could have been done

I'm sure we will get told it was a grant or that Nextier paid for it.....

There's really no such thing as a grant, it's still taxpayer money.

We have a winner.

Grants is a vote getting process that uses your tax dollars.  

And then Pa has this great vote getting process paid by your tax dollars called WAM.

Don't forget about the late night vote that was taken to give these people (handing out your money for votes) a raise while the tax paying citizens were struggling to make their paycheck work for them and their family.

There was no late night, or any vote caste by them was there

100% agree.  That was the reason for the ellipsis.   There isn't a special font (yet) for sarcasm.  

The "it was a grant" excuse seems to be how they smooth things over with the general population that think it's "free money" when "they" spend money on waterfalls when we have waterlines that bust every year in the same place.
