Great pictures
ReplyDeleteI wish you could take a picture of the sign from 441 and 30 that says trucks are prohibited through town. Thing is you cant. Why is it not there. Trucks could be ticketed as money for the town
ReplyDeleteI thought cherry street is residental.
ReplyDeleteIt depends who you are , More SLECTIVE ENFORCMENT
DeleteAnd they say the cars are double parking all the time, I am glad I don't live on Cherry st , I would be calling the police all the time.
ReplyDeleteCode calls for a railing at 433 walnut , and at 22 and 24 s 2nd street , SLECTIVE ENFORCMENT AGAIN , only Columbia can have a blind eye for some but not others.
ReplyDeletethis is a SLAP in the face for all people that were made to install rails on homes almost 100 years old and some don't , even if they have a public coffee shop, the codes dept is getting to be bull s--- , it should be every property or none.
Deletepeople are double parking all over town. Most of the time there is an open space right beside them.
ReplyDeleteTake pictures of Columbia high school.
ReplyDeletea simple parking solution is to make the main streets one way and make rows of parking
ReplyDeleteThe couch on Locust St. is waiting for the next parade
