    The reason why elderly didn't apply was why have a mortgage when ours is already paid off and I am old now. As for working families. My son lives with us due to he can't even build a home for the land he does own. He makes good money but the cost of living in MAINE is to HIGH and over TAXED. The cost of raising a child is hard and a disabliabled one is harder. His son can't get ssd due to my son makes to much money now. Also he is paying back ssd for overpaid amount for the 3rd time in 2 years. Also who could pay the taxes on the house for the price of 326,000 and the value of over 1 million dollars.

  • @Paul-um1zw
    @Paul-um1zw 5 месяцев назад

    This is a really, really bad, misleading title. I live in Montpelier - this film is about response and recovery (which were impressive and praise-worthy efforts), and has little to do with resilience. If the floods recur in the near future, much of the downtown businesses will give up - only incremental gains in resilience have been made thus far. Making the city less susceptible to flood damage is a gargantuan task that involves decades of river restoration work on the entirety of the upstream watershed and rebuilding downtown so that floods are less damaging (and more easily recovered from). Resilience is more about the ability to better withstand recurrence of rainstorms like this rather than one-off response efforts, no matter how impressive. Please be careful with your wording, as you contribute to prevalent mis-characterizations.

    @anitalegault4415 Год назад

    Capitalism to the people...nice slogan. My question is why are you satisfied with your company, DC Management, and how they treat tenants? Refusing to renew a lease of a 4-year tenant , who not only paid rent right on time, but took time to enlighten your "management" with things like a plan for when plowing in the winter, so tenants will understand; how to avoid having your elderly tenants knocked over by a dog unleashed who shouldn't have been allowed. Inconsistent vendors, and cutting loose the ones who did a decent job. The list goes on, not that I expect you will lose any sleep over it.

    There is only one way to reach zero accidents and making people sad, angry, guilty, and hurt is a cruel attempt to a fake result. People have been tolerant of these extremely emotional ads so far but the needless infliction of verbal pain needs to stop. If you are serious about Vision Zero you'll stand behind the elevated, automated, guided, accident free MicroRail. Eliminate the human factors of driving. The human species is just plain fallible. Get used to it and support a system that cannot kill or maim. Go MicroRail.

  • @patrickconlon7973
    @patrickconlon7973 2 года назад

    Vision Zero has traditionally been supported by what has been called the 3E"s of Engineering, Education and Enforcement. The trend now is to move away from the Enforcement piece of this due to equity issues and really focus on engineering and education. A good many people lean first towards enforcement often because that has been the traditional method. Cars are speeding on a particular road, so the police set up some speed traps and issue some fines. The word will spread and speed will be reduced as drivers will be more careful not to speed on that road...for awhile, but it's not sustainable. If we focus on education and engineering instead we solve street safety issues for the long haul. Redesigning streets has a higher up front cost but in the long run it is more effective and has greater long term payback.

    The people on the west end that wants to go to Hannafords can catch the #5 on Congress St because if you change the route they can go out to the Mall one where you drop off unless you’ve stopped going there ,, then you can change the 8 plus they on the west end gutta think there are disabled and low income housing on the hill where people have been walking to get a bus and they are crying in the west ,, like I said before,, if it’s groceries,, order online and pay $12 a month for free delivery all month
