To bad enforcement isn't an option on speed limits. Can't waste a cop. I could never join the Uplands. I am not anal retentive enough. /end tongue and cheek Hey I also agree about people driving “Mach 12″ through neighborhoods. To bad enforcement isn’t an option on speed limits. Can’t waste a cop.

Move on up the bluff and join us. You, too, can enjoy storm sewers and sidewalks, and we all know you won't ever complain about the traffic. Emtronics — No need to be jealous of us Uplanders.

IAW is responsable to return it to like it was. If the city does not hold them to that then it is the COP fault.Mainbreaks are not planned. Granted that main might be old, but it does not signal replacement just because it's old. If it was peoria owned would you expect them send themself a bill?

Cut through the Uplands? Those people will have a fit. There are more top signs per square foot there than any place in Peoria. Paul is correct, a lot of money was spent studying the fact that people won't cut through a neighborhood. Money down the drain I guess. (pardon the pun) BTW, as I blogged about this IAW thing, I asked; "What were the odds a water main would break right after they refinished the road?" Oh my! Cut through the Uplands?

Isn't there a $25,000 traffic study indicating that it wouldn't possibly be your course of action? I didn't read it, just pulling from memory....
