Community boards will no longer have any say in DOT plans for various safety and other roadway plans such as protected bike lanes.

Good. Community boards do not really represent the community but are just a congregation of a small group of anti-everything NIMBYs and old busybodies.

Community Bards can be annoyances.


Actually, Community Boards work FAR better in China than they do in the USA.

Maybe we have too much people talking in general anyway

On one side you have a million checks but on the other side you have a million balances

Makes sense. Most people don’t even know what safety mean. Most of them only care about what works for them, not what is the safetest way of doing thing.

Big deal... It's not like the City/DOT really listened anyway. They'd meet with Community Boards, and then do whatever the hell they wanted anyway. The City knows what works best for EVERY community, because EVERY community has the same needs... Yep!!

Nice, any day self-important NIMBYs get virtually stabbed is a good day
