Busking, costs to close War Memorial Auditorium (they left out the cost of tearing down and hauling away the old building with the gaping hole in the roof. They weren't planning on leaving it there, were they?) I'm not sure what police FTEs are but Greensboro has a lot less per person than Charoltte and Winston-Salem and more per person than Durham and Raleigh. In reading this article about Ann Arbor, Michigan it appears lower numbers of FTEs are a bad thing.
The Heath Community Plan is mentioned. That's the same area where I found a plan for a second Greensboro Sportsplex that everyone downtown refuses to talk to me about. Seriously, it's on Google maps.
The Accelerated Infrastructure Investments For Economic Growth strategic mobility formula from the NC DOT is interesting. It advocates reduced travel times to spur economic growth. Isn't that what I've been saying for the last 2 years when I say put the jobs where the people live? Of course, like the City of Greensboro they'd rather build roads and industrial parks. It's going to be hard to peddle 70 MPH on those bicycles when we can no longer afford to outbid the Chinese for gas.
All that an more in this week's IFYI.
