As you can see the bike trails get overlooked for maintenance but the bike lines on the city streets are repainted every couple of months to make them look good, hardly anyone uses them. I'm all for the bike/walking trails which are extensively utilized but I'm against bike lines on downtown city streets. They cause traffic jams and very expensive too maintain. Hopefully, the city can take measures to repaint the bike trails, especially the one that starts on the federal courthouse and ends on FM 511.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6016803033174468094.post-77153603963266754772017-04-23T16:45:23.123-05:002017-04-23T16:45:23.123-05:00Anonymous 3:15 PM, obviously you have no respect f...Anonymous 3:15 PM, obviously you have no respect for those who disagree with you or express an opinion different from yous. To qutoe Neil Strauss, "Most attacks come from fear", you feel threaten so you feel the need to attack me with irrelevant points that does not focus on the issue. You attack me for things I was not convicted of and even if had been, it has nothing to do with the subject matter. <br /><br />Learn to read, I clearly stated and believe a lot of people will agree that the designated bicycle paths or trails away from automobile traffic is the best and safest place for bicyclist. No one is against this, but to spend the enormous amount in the hundreds of thousands on bicycle lanes and pet projects for a select group that does not even use the bicyle lanes enough to justify squandering taxpayers monies when the city needs streets to be paved or other priorities address is selfish and irresponsible. Elected representatives have a fiduciary duty to utilize taxpayers monies wisely, which Gowen clealy does not understand, could care less as noted by her voting record and spending. <br /><br />Gowen will most likely be re-elected, but this does not mean she is their to represent the people, because clearly she does not. What it does mean is that voters no longer care and feel defeated by the elite individuals who conttrol our city government to rape the taxpayers coffers. <br /><br />i just read that the Guitierrez warehouse on Rigold and 6th that the city purchased and did not need may be converted to the Farmers Market for the elite, which is safe to assume the occupants will most likely pay little or nothing to use it and will discriminate against outside vendors that do not belong to the elite group. Government is not there to subsidize private business and undermine free market competition. It is not fair to the Flea Market vendors on the Expressway to deny them the same access as the elites have with the Rose Gowen programs that favor a select few. <br /><br />Anonymous, I sign my name, but obviously you fear me, which is why you attack and do not sign your name. Mark my words your support for corruption will catch up with this city and eventually the price is going to be high to pay. And yes, the mayor and present corrupt individuals on the commission will walk away with no accountability, but in the end they will be held accountable. To use their position for self serving needs and wants does not go unnotice and we all know these people not to be public servants. <br /><br />Keep your attacks coming at me, but it changes nothing. You are the problem. I am not in office, do not seek a position and can say that the people's voice, needs, and priorities were heard and addressed as best I could.

Get real, bro.<br /><br />I doubt Ben is, at the Crescent Moon and Half Moon always saw groups of bikers who would hang out and party there at his place, especially after Cyclobia.<br /><br />Also the bike trail near my house is always full of kids. They use it to walk home from school and to go to the grocery. How ignorant to say the paint used on them is wasteful spending. Erasmo spends more at the all you can eat buffets than to complain about the pennies spent on paint. He will get one of these young kids killed if the bike lanes are not brightly marked where cars can see them! Too stupid! Whether you like Gowen or not I am glad to see the young kids have their own clearly marked path. Don't agree with her on PUB but I will vote for her again. Have seen many positive benefits to the trails.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6016803033174468094.post-48368348811434984702017-04-22T17:55:42.331-05:002017-04-22T17:55:42.331-05:00You are totally wrongYou are totally wrongAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6016803033174468094.post-56341582947636790832017-04-22T13:21:26.294-05:002017-04-22T13:21:26.294-05:00Don't be so stupid, we know biking is good for...Don't be so stupid, we know biking is good for our health, just go biking on the already established bike trails. You can start at the federal courthouse and go all the way to FM 511. We need for the seating commissioners to stop wasting tax payers monies on hardly used bike lanes downtown which, by the way, cost thousands of dollars to maintain and create traffic jams .These bike lines get repainted every two months for nothing, just to make them look good. Great article on the cylovias expenditures, they need to get canceled as its costing hundreds of thousands of dollars for nothing. On top of costs, it really hurt downtown merchants due to street closures. The city should also consider providing assistance to the weekly farmers market, city workers are utilized every Saturday to help set up adding up to overtime costs. Besides, the city doesn't benefit at all from this event, they don't pay a penny to use city property to sell their products. Enough is enough, we need new leaders.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6016803033174468094.post-68557394317186723092017-04-22T12:37:20.595-05:002017-04-22T12:37:20.595-05:00The sitting city commissioners running for re-elec...The sitting city commissioners running for re-election need to go. Rose Gowen refuses to meet her opponent in a public forum, as has John Villareal. If only Tony Martinez was running so we can get rid of him too. Tony and his puppets have sent shiny bikes out to the public, but have brought in no jobs. More businesses are leaving that moving in. And, the city has wasted money on real estate that is sitting empty downtown. All the bike riders enjoy the security of downtown during Rose Gowen's events, but then leave and leave no money behind and never go downtown to shop. Time to elect those who care about the community and don't avoid public debate.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6016803033174468094.post-40436166648112649122017-04-22T12:30:29.962-05:002017-04-22T12:30:29.962-05:00What is a "carbon"????
