The $64,000 question is, why not save [many of] our tax dollars & use SeeClickFix?
(Direct links: SCF for Grass Valley, SCF for Nevada City)
Reported by KNCO's Rita Stevens:
"The Nevada County Transportation Commission has received funding to do a new pedestrian study. Transportation Planner, Mike Woodman says the $65 thousand grant is to identify areas where people would like to see pedestrian improvements and the commission would like to hear from residents about areas where there are gaps in sidewalks or safety concerns, or areas where there needs to be a crosswalk or additional curb ramps."I wonder if the granting agency knew about SeeClickFix.
I went to the NCTC website to see if I could learn more - including where the money's coming from - but just found a link to a very simple(*) Nevada County Pedestrian Improvement Plan survey, deadline is Aug 13.
Yo, NCTC, your "Meetings & Agendas" archives are from 2009...
I'd drop a link to SeeClickFix in the comments at that KNCO story, but KNCO stories don't have comments...

New policy re climate contrarianism comments as of 11/11/2009:
Comments questioning the climate science community's understanding of climate change (97% of active climatologists now believe that the earth is currently warming and that it's human-caused - link) will be deleted unless the commenter:
a) is local
b) uses his real name
c) provides link(s) to substantiate his claim(s)/inference(s)
d) is willing to collaborate on constructing an argument tree, to get us past the usual sterile point-counterpoint-countercounterpoint.
(For people who can't read the above, a summary:
1) Be civil;
2) Don't post w/o giving at least a pseudonym;
3) Don't espouse climate-denial crankery unless you're local and willing to stand behind it.)
Caveats:
1. Comments could be delayed: they are being moderated, and I'm sometimes away from the computer for a day or more.
2. : Perfectly legitimate comments are sometimes miscategorized (by the blogging platform) as spam, & not published. If this happens to yours, please notify me, else I might not notice for a day or two.
