Record number in one week, or a year? what record? So a few developers wake up and fly back to put in medium housing density plywood crackerboxes and we should be impressed. Well, they might be but ITS SPRING!! Pull open the curtains, put down the brown bottles, turn off the TV and look outside. Pray that kind of density isnt coming full "bore" down your street, like what happened in Stevensville a few years ago.A real "celibration" would be if some of the storefronts on the Jarvis street would open up with businesses we could all use. Never mind new permits, lets try to use the buildings standing dark and abandoned, (some shamefully large, ie; the Zellers mall) before sombody throws a shoulder muscle patting someone on the back for some new crackerbox development that came in so quickly, the yokels were slack jawed in awe.Tony Robinonoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2734542855080671064.post-36586684538360843902015-05-05T13:04:00.372-04:002015-05-05T13:04:00.372-04:00That shot of the mayor picking up litter at the la...That shot of the mayor picking up litter at the lakefront was very telling. What next Wayne with a shovel filling a pothole? There are a lot of places where someone not on the crew doing a union job would get him or her in a lot of trouble. Not here though. The boys at the yard seem to look the other way when its a $hit job being done by some staffer enjoying a photo op. That might explain why the Kman pool as it stands is still full of blackwater surrounded by rust, litter and junk. Maybe its just some cleanup job beneath the skills and talents of the towns well paid work crews. Right next to that million dollar sinkhole they call a library too. Photo op or not something should be done about that concrete eyesore.If the cleanup crew need to be seen in a photo in the paper to get this thing going, so be it.

People that usually stay untill the bitter end no matter how bitter. Lets hope things get a little more lively. The ninjokes were promoting the idea of "boring is good" but this might be taking that idea a little too far. A lot of people are waiting for that expencive report on the lakeshores fate to drop. That will be kicking the hornets nest. When will they ever learn? Havent they sold off enough lakeshore land over the years to scratch that itch?? We need more REAL parkland for the citizens of the town to enjoy, not some scowling fool on a riding mower paid by the town. If the council is waiting for that report to make some boner move they will hear the people of the community speak loud and VERY clear.

Passero says the beach needs to make money, who says this is really necessary. Does the Race Track make money directly for the Town - NO the town spends half a million dollars to keep this part time event open- only 2 days a week. Well the beach is open 7 days a week & there are more tourists visiting the beach than attend the track on any given day.. So what is Passeros point?.Does the Kinsmen pool make money for the Town again no it sucks up money. If they charge a nominal fee for attending the beach it will make lots of money & theses funds can be used to enhance the beach. The Town used $2 million of gambling money to buy the beach not the taxpayers, he needs a history lesson. All levels of government want our beach fronts enhanced for the public & a concrete tower isn't compliant with the vision. How about a 3 story parking garage on the north side to provide parking - at $5 per day this could really bring in the coin. How much money was collected on the Erie rd parking lot every summer.?<br />Too expensive to build then why doesn't the Town purchase some of the vacant lots on Erie rd & create parking that would cost a lot less. Hopefully the residents of Ridgeway & Cb will be pro active & give good input.<br /> <br />Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2734542855080671064.post-39267964552742805182015-05-03T11:00:33.593-04:002015-05-03T11:00:33.593-04:00I responded to the article because one of the mini...I responded to the article because one of the minions believes that everyone in Fort Erie should have a say in what happens to the Bay Beach Properties. We went through that with non-resident Rino Mostacci's dream of condo towers all along Bay Beach. We went through that with the 2006-2010 council voting (including the Ward 5 Councillor Martha Lockwood) to enter into an agreement with the Molinaros. Frankly, if it weren't for the efforts of residents of Crystal Beach and the market, the Abominable Tower would have been built by now.<br /><br />What is needed is a complete greenspace with shade, benches and picnic tables. Updated large wash./change rooms and elimination of blacktop and ugly fences on the South side of Erie Road. It could be a beautiful place for residents and visitors to enjoy our beautiful waterfront and beach. So simple. It will also, as it already has, draw people in from all over. In my experience running a snack bar, the visitors spent money in the community. The loss of the now CBTYC parking lot on Erie Road is problematic - a challenge. Crystal Beach is a lot more than a beach. It's up to the FOCB and the CB-BIA to market and promote this hidden gem.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16495038420778835026noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2734542855080671064.post-67582417134206441492015-05-03T09:41:10.112-04:002015-05-03T09:41:10.112-04:00Dube's piece reminds us that the plan will be ...Dube's piece reminds us that the plan will be asking for input from the public as to the direction (if any) the waterfront plan should take. The FOCB will nedd to get together and form a united front against any commercial nonsense that would damage an already over fenced and paved greenspace. Havent developers already wrecked what could have been a gem of the south coast? (with the help of the seated councils over the years selling out to vested interests). When is it done? When every last bit of public waterfront is either paved as a boat launch or sold to private interests? Steve P. saying that people coming for just the day doesent make money is just stupid. Imagine if that same attitude was applied to the sports fields here? ("parks" to some) There just wouldnt be any. Its about time the council stopped trying to wreck what little there is left in CB and sent some money here to upgrade and protect the land as it stands today for future citizens. Bay Beach waterfront park would be a good start.

Also it looks like the guys cutting the lawn in the park blew a lot of lawn cuttings through the fence and into the water.

I have seen quite a few come and go, never to be heard from again. This latest scheme has all the makings of a financial disaster for those who fall for it. Sort of like "kiting checks" a well-known scam. Eventually, someone will have to be accountable for the bills. We heard that one local business has/had a lien on the Schooley Road project. Now, it's cash only for that particular project. We're still wondering what happened to all the wood taken at night from 22 Queens Circle. The building is now a shell/fire trap. No building permit or demolition permit was ever displayed. How does someone get away with this? Another building next door to 22 was demolished last year because of "termites."
