PPD is seeking a grant for $122,500 for a parallel separated bike trail along Radnor Road to the new Peoria Public Library while the PPD has also put put bids for the Kellar Branch Trail. Some say Radnor Road is in bad shape. It appears to be a County Rd. so I'll find out and get in touch with our highway super.
Out State may grow broke while millions can't find jobs but the public sector continues to request money for such "priorities" as bike trails and walking paths??
Are we a world gone nuts or what do we have too many nuts making the world go nuts.
The PPD didn't have the money to do the ball diamonds they have been promising since 2002, build a decent skateboard park for kids ACTIVITY, it appears they have not properly used the $200,000+ plus stimulus grant to spend on Proctor Center, go see for yourself.
The Legislatures and bureaucrats are approving and our public bodies are spending all this money on enhancements when the State of Illinois can't even pay their bills and our Federal Government is spending and borrowing; interest on the borrowed money, much of it from foreign countries, will soon reach astronomical numbers.
Some or most of our "leaders" are out of their minds. Priorities are bike and walking trails. This appears to be the generation of I want, I want, I want.
I thught Ray LaHood knew better than to say he puts the same emphasis on trails as he does on highways. It sure shows it.
