On Farmland surfacing in Janesville Smart Growth talks

Posted on December 4 at 10:17 p.m. ( Suggest removal )

Couldn't the land owners just sell to other farmers if they need to sell the land? I don't see why it would have to go to development if the farmer wanted to sell. That preserves farmland while allowing land owners to cash-out if they need to. Isn't that what zoning does, says what land can be sold for what purposes. So does all zoning impede the rights of land owners? I hope the farmland can be preserved.

I have also heard stories of healthy pets getting out and after one day at that shelter they come home VERY sick! Sounds like they need to have a separate area for sick animals or for new animals. And maybe get a vet in there to treat them!

Regarding car seats:
A 5-point harness is the safest and there are seats that allow this up to 65+ pounds. My 5-year old is in a 5-point harness seat called the Apex 65 (it's cheaper than the Britax one). Older children should be in a booster seat until they are 4 ft, 9 inches. (The law is age/weight based, but seat belts are made by height) My 8 year old will be in a booster until he is 4 ft, 9 inches no matter how old he is. NO children under 4ft 9 inches should be in the front seat, ever. Let's keep our kids safe!

I think they should just paint it like Wright Rd with one lane of traffic, one parking lane and one bike lane. With one lane, the traffic would slow down and it would be easier to cross with only two lanes to watch instead of four. Paint can't be that expensive and it could be done in a day! I really want SOMETHING done and done soon because it is dangerous.

The punishment does seem severe considering he could have killed her by driving drunk and been out in 6 years!

I think this would be a good place to get rid of old clothing that is stained or ripped. I only donate clothing that is usable and sometimes end up throwing away clothing that is in poor condition. At least this way, it would get used for something.

As for decent clothing, there are quite a few local options that would be far better than this USAgain program.

Good point janesvillean, most pedophiles are very manipulative, gaining the trust of their victims. They are also really good liars. This guy was blatant and is telling the police exactly what his intentions were. I'm guessing he's got a very low IQ or some medical condition like you mentioned. Either way, he needs to be kept away from this girl and all children.

I was looking at more info on the website I linked and wanted to say that I am not selling the product advertised there! LOL! I liked the chart, but didn't realize it was part of a sales pitch. Although, I do think it's a good idea for every bar to have a breathalyzer by the door so people aren't allowed to drive away if they fail it!
