ONCE MORE TO THE LAKE; A SUNDAY SHOWER FLOOD



















(Ed.'s Note: Sunday morning's unexpected gully washer took everyone by surprise and the usual places that flood when we have a heavy rain flooded once more, forcing some motorists to straddle traffic lanes and avoid problem areas like Four Corners and McDavitt/Boca Chica.

That's Palm Boulevard in the middle photo. The postman had to park at a distance to deliver the mail to a house along the street.

The man in the top photo wearing rubber boots and removing trash and brush from the drains on Ebony Avenue said he didn't blame the city crews for the backed up gutters, but his neighbors and pedestrians who walked by trash and rolled up Bargain Book weeklies and didn't bother to bend over and pick them up and dispose of them in a waste basket.

"Sometimes we blame the city too much for the blocked gutters," he said disgusted. "But if some people just bent over and picked up the trash as they walk by it would prevent a lot of this.")

Bike trails are more important and don't purchase any equipment to fix this flooding LETS ALL RE-ELECT HER AGAIN AND AGAIN....
LET THE WORLD KNOW THAT THIS IS THE BIKE CAPITAL OF THE WHOLE UNIVERSE.
Spacex is carring a bike in their store compartment to leave in Mars when and if they go there. It was approved with a city resolution on Sunday.

"If you heard an awful lot of cars honking on 10th Street Saturday morning",
The Monitor is a republican newspaper catering to democrats cause republican don't buy this stupid newspaper.
The truth is there were only 5 or 6 cars and all were from up north.

These world wide idiota supports are like cockroaches they go where they're not wanted and stink the place up.

Election time next year, remember don't elect or reelect anyone with "Historical Designation " BS on their personal homes. If they dont pay a penny on personal property taxes, then they dont have business representing their constituents in public office. What a double standard, let's keep this in mind when casting our votes, enough is enough, they need to be voted out once and for all.

Palm Blvd flooded and still they have a hi-speed chase? How? Oh they used the bike trails.

Tell everybody they deliberately have floods so there won't be high speed chases.

Bike trails dont get flooded and that's all that matters. Priorities are all screwed up thanks to pet projects. We need true elected officials that can really take charge and provide municipal services such as street maintenance and proper drainage. No more useless bike lines downtown, in fact, the current ones need to be removed as hardly anyone uses it.

That’s the water PUB is collecting for the desalination plant.

PUB will save a lot of money by reusing those flood waters and than they can give themselves another salary increase up to 40k A MONTH.. AND THIS IS THE POOREST CITY IN THE COUNTRY (APPALACHIAN MOUNTAINS) IS THE MOST MORONISTIC) IN THE WORLD. pinches pendejos. lol
