That's how they do it. My neighborhood had all that work done last year, and almost every time the cones showed up when the work started, back-dated to several days prior.
Sometimes, though, the cones would come out with the no parking signs, nothing would happen, and then work would begin after the no parking expired.
It sucks, and they really should try to do better, but at the end of the day it's probably more important to get all of the lead lines replaced than anything else. It is obnoxious, though.
Also wait until you see the quality of their temporary patches! They'll make you forget all about their [lack of] signage and notice.

The park security has definitely decreased in the last few years.
It used to be that all bags had to be checked, etc. The process to get through the gate is a breeze now.
Not that gate security would have done much to prevent last year’s violence.

His answer is always "security cameras" and major screening at entrances.

If this is an issue now, why was kennywood still open for the remainder of phantom fright nights and holiday lights, this prick didn’t say anything then.

It also happens to be two months before the park is scheduled to open.

100% a political stunt he's using to make himself try and look good. If he actually cared about safety he would have went to the part five months ago and spent the off season giving reccomendations, not a month before opening. Kennywood already did their part to improve security, why not worry about the SOURCE of the problem, which is all the gangs and hoods in Homestead and West Mifflin? All this is going to do is potentially screw employees like myself out of their paycheck if this goes through. I have coworkers and friends who are saying that if this goes through they're going to have to cancel plans because they won't have the money for it.
Open my park.

And we have experience with snow domes over some Pittsburgh neighborhoods

Other parks have dealt with this by limiting and significantly increasing prices of season passes. removing local discount tickets(school tickets, Shop n save etc.) and removing food packages.
One of the parks stated they had to increase prices above local day care costs.

Actually a dome would be better. Something that blocks out the UV rays so you don't have to worry about being sunburned for being at the park all day.

He doesn't. This is less than a nothing burger from a shitbag who likes it when his name is in the news. Well, except for when it's in the news like this.

The title states “-4” as in negative 4

I think the confusion is your title states you had 4 day’s notice when you had none.

Wowzers. Thanks for the link - I remember this story and didn’t make the connection. I don’t usually do yard signs for local elections, but this guy sounds sign-worthy!

They’re supposed to put them out 48 hours in advance but they are lazy
