Author    Post   Ryan Eashoo F L I N T O I D We are so quick to critize Mayor Williamson, but a lot of you guys on here don't praise him for a job well done. So I want take this oppurtunity to THANK Mayor Williamson for improving the condition of Flint roads while out county roads crumble. It use to be you could tell when you were in Flint or not by how bad the roads were. When you hit pot holes you were in Flint Michigan, when the road was smooth you are in Outside of Flint. This is not true today folks, I think our Mayor is doing a great job on the roads! Lets give credit when credit is due! _________________ Flint Michigan Resident, Tax Payer, Flint Nutt - Local REALTOR - Activist. www.FlintTown.com Fri Dec 21, 2007 10:44 pm  greengal5874 F L I N T O I D I hate to agree with you at all, Eashoo, but I do.

Sat Dec 22, 2007 4:07 pm  Mark Bonto F L I N T O I D Huh? Where do you guys live? I defy any of you to come to my, not bad at all city of Flint, neighborhood. The roads suck. The roads are plowed far less and less often than Flint Twp. The you can go to Flint Twp, just 4 houses away from me, and find much better roads. Just a coincidence, I guess! Sat Dec 22, 2007 5:42 pm  Dave Starr F L I N T O I D Mine - Civic Park area - are paved & were plowed. _________________ I used to care, but I take a pill for that now.

Wait till the layoffs start this summer when the city is in financial recievership again. Roads people, garbage, police all laid off. Mark my word! You will see a new finance director shortly so the mayor can appoint one of his own in order to "fudge" the books. I am at city hall everyday and see the crap that take place. The recently lost sewer case is a perfect example of how this administraton works.

Have you tried contacting your councilman? Yes. In fact, he was on one of my shows (seemingly a very nice guy). I confronted him about it. Didn't help much. Last week my car almost fell into a pothole.
