Just another example of aging infrastructure, limited resources and having to make choices. I'm sure the city would like to make every intersection fully-accessible (better for its constituents, more public works jobs for small contractors), but when it boils down to adding a curb ramp or repairing a traffic signal or filling a pot hole or paying for another week of a retired employee's pension, the curb ramp ends up on the bottom of the list. The small number of people with disabilities, out of the small number of people, in general, using our sidewalks, combined with a low profile/not much agitating to fix the problem, results in little progress. Like Eliott Davis pointed out last night, we (Shane Cohn) can find $22,500 to decorate 400 fire hydrants in “his” ward / Dutchtown, instead of, in this example, improving accessibility. Bottom line, we get the government, and the services we deserve . . . http://www.fox2now.com/news/ktvi-you-paid-decor…
