The other day, there was a car stopped, trying to turn left at one of the no left turn intersections. Behind it were TWO County police SUVs. They beeped and then went around. Wtf.

It surely would improve the cities and the neighborhoods it would pass through. There was decade plus long planning process that involved master planning with the neighborhoods affected including residential and commercial development. It’s heartbreaking to look at these plans and see what could have been. There is also plenty of research out there on the positive ROI of transit on cities, and I believe the plans for the Red Line included plenty of data and justification on this matter (Hogan’s people didn’t bother to read the plan). I think the Red Line was also based on one of the lines from the mid-20th century plan to build a metro transit network in Baltimore akin to Washington DC.

Hi, I’m Chris. I’m the guy who’s done a lot of the lights, particularly in the canton/patterson park/brewers hill area. Most of my customers provide options for collecting payment. Venmo/Zelle/cash/check. Just keep a spreadsheet of payments and share it to something like Google drive like someone else suggested. Many people have a block Facebook group they communicate on or an email chain. I do a lot of estimates so I’m not sure if you met with me or a different company. I’m happy to give you an estimate if not. At 35-40 houses, unless we have to add our own poles to tie into, I’m generally in the $100-110/house range. Feel free to text me for anyone interested @ 410-241-4696.
