ash, pine, howe, all those streets are bad. Especially horton coming from ash or pine. People park on the corner to go the bank or to the store, park on the side of horton street where there is no parking signs. People don't stop at stop signs. There are a lot of kids around getting on and off buses. Those streets are all 25 mph. Slow down!!!!!!! I live on horton street and since I have been here there have been 6 accidents in the area of horton and pine, howe, walnut and bartlett. Plus people have been turning left from bartlett to ash. Ash is one way, you can only turn right if you are coming from sabattus street. If you are coming from walnut street you can only turn left. If you don't know the area look at the signs. Every street is clearly marked. Since ash street is now a one lane road, there needs to be no parking. There isn't enough room when there is snow. Best thing to do is just slow down.
Why doesn't all the members of the legislation take cuts on their payroll and their insurance coverage and see if they can manage. I'm already fighting DHS because of a mistake they made and because of their mistake my income tax refund is in jeopardy. I've already lost my maine state refund. This is wrong. DHS takes money from people who are on the system because of the mistake DHS made. That's not right. Why should the people be punished for a mistake that wasn't their fault. Stop spending other people's money. I work as much as I can so That my 8 yr old can go to school and have food, a roof what I make versus my rent and bills barely lets me have any money left over for dr visits, car repairs or basic household necessities, toothpaste, toilet paper etc.... Why don't they take it back from the people who defrauded DHS. I have mainecare but I don't have dental. Maine care only pays $8.00 for eyeglasses and they break all the time because they are cheap. The only way I can get mainecare to pay for a dentist is if I break a tooth or need one pulled. I can't just go to the dentist to fill a cavitiy or to have my teeth cleaned. That isn't fair. The legislature is supposed to be helping those citizens that are having a hard time. Instead of going on those fancy vacations, buying that new car why don't some of you Take your bonuses and put it back into the system. If I could afford to live like that I would give up my bonuses. It's about caring, oh wait the only thing the legislature cares about is what in their pockets and who they can screw next.!!! I'm all for rules and regulations but it needs to apply to everyone. Starting with the lawmakers.
well then fine the ones who drop the butts on the ground. But really it will be hard to fine because it will cost more to have someone patrol to find these smoking law breakers. They need to just ban cigarettes period. They ban most everything else anyway. People don't like to wear seatbelts but they do because they know they will get a ticket if they don't. I've actually had people pull in my driveway and dump their ashtray on the ground and leave. I quit smoking 12 years ago and I dropped one butt on the ground and got yelled at by my neighbor. That was the last time I did that.
doesn't matter if you are near someone when smoking. It's still in the air. Do you think that just because you are in a smog infested town you can just go to the next town and not have it? Wrong. it's in the air. it's like pollen it flows through the air. remember that nuclear fiasco in china? the particles from that registered all the way here in Maine.so just because you're not smoking near someone don't think it doesn't affect us. I'm an ex smoker. i can tell if a person smokes while walking down the street. I can smell it from the car in front of me. It's called second hand smoke. You are forcing us to breathe it in even if you didn't mean it.

We don't need NY's trash, we have enough here. Let them keep their own trash.
