Judge reverses herself, allowing Northville to close downtown streets this summer after all

That’s good news, however it’s not like other opposing businesses owner doesn’t have a point

Specialty retail stores in the city’s downtown area seem to be doing OK, she noted. Those like hers, who sell clothing or other goods that can be found in many other locations, are not.

“Nobody asked us if we wanted closures,” Kauffman said. “Nobody came and talked to our business about what it would mean for us. Nobody’s supplementing my rent to make up for the losses that I have because I’m paying rent based on 30,000 to 60,000 cars a day. That’s the part that upsets me the most.”

I mean, I live in Europe but specifically in Italy, not exactly the ruling country in the field of walkable and carless road systems, so I get that people living in USA are extremely disadvantaged in this sense, but exactly because I live in Italy I also understand what it means when an authority makes chances that are good on paper but very badly executed in reality, that’s why I honestly can’t blame completely the people who disagreed with the closure

However I really hope they will be able to keep the neighbourhoods closed and safe in the end, but complaints needs to be listened and the people struggles acknowledged

In her ruling, Elder said the city violated the terms of its original 1840 plat, which designated Main and Center streets for public travel

The Model T would not come along for another ~70 years after that Plat map was filed. Perhaps one way around the ruling is to still permit horses.

Trump has already showed judges are powerless and the law is meaningless. Tell the judge to rip it out if he wants it badly enough

I hope someone drives over that judge’s lawn every day for the rest of their life. Just leaving it a muddy tracked mess.

Just tear the street up and make it in drivable f the judge is going to be a bitch about it. Rio that shit UP

Laws will never stop cars.

Stopping cars will never be allowed

Therefore the best fuckcars praxis is completely random car bombs.

Edit: i know you want to target your politocal enemies, or the wealthy, or cops. And you can/should include them in the target pool, but you need a really good source of randomness. Include your freinds, your family, and-if you drive a car-yourself on the list of potential targets. If your dource of randomness determines you must target yourself, no cheating.

Im actually really annoyed because Downtown Northville is really nice AAAARRRGGHH
