It has a name - it's 93.
Another one of those "tough decisions" the council has to make...let just Dave build a statue of Gaylord Nelson in his own yard and he can "have his way" with Gaylord any way he sees fit......as for Hwy 93...call it what it is....Hwy 93! Kind of scary to think that this is the type of leadership we are seeing at the City Council in clearly some tough times ahead.
I think that Duax just wants to be remembered as the guy who was responsible for Highway 93 getting a new name. Ego Trip!
did Dave Duax think night and day trying to come up with something that would get his name in the paper? Highway 93 has a name...Highway 93. Find something important to do...please.
Can someone find Duax another hobby (other than the City Council)Would I be able to smoke in my car when I drive down Gaylord Nelson Boulevard?
Seriously, this is being considered? Lets just leave things alone, why even consider changing the name of Hwy 93? Someone has way too much time on their hands...
If you need to rename the road within the city limits, how about naming it after a prominent local citizen? I think Melvin Cohen would deserve such an honor.
I think that we all pay taxes and play and imortant role in society. I don't think that there needs to be a darn road named after someone. It is a waste of money. If someone is that influential and important then we would all know who he is and what he has done. Anyone else never heard of the guy??
Why can't people just leave things alone ?
This is a very important issue and needs to be placed in front of all other issues under consideration by the EC board (NOT).
Leave it as HWY 93, as people have known that for so long now that if you throw another name on it people are going to get confused. I know that I will just say HWY 93, plus why such a long name.
Way to go facing the tough issues. What a joke.
How much money will this cost our city that is low on money already?
