Cars are going to put out an ass tonne more smoke than some people smoking cigarettes (or in my case, the occasional cigar). Said cars also happen to run through front street (downtown Traverse City). People shop down there. This area is probably more confined than a park, yet no one is complaining.

Sorry, I was so distracted by this bit of understatement I couldn't read any further.

Obviously, he's frustrated though. It's rather a constant and pointedly, not limited to his Commission duties.

Yep, ban and change so people can't have rental properties or easily make a buck. Rather then ask that lil' old lady why she didn't call the cops, just make a new law and zone. Mmm hmmm, good faith.

Yep, we're over ran by stray dogs on the beach and crazed boaters. They spend so much time, effort, and money on manufactured bs, it's amazing how the public continues to humbly go along. I'm just shocked we don't have a huge piece of 'art' where dogs and boaters piss around.

Lets build roads...so bicycles and walkers have it great and the things that actually are supposed to use the roads get inconvenienced but foot the bill. Do these "frustrated" ones need a park bench and land scape at every intersection, in every median, and do they really land smack on top their head when they fall off their bikes? Me, it was always the crotch, knees, elbows, even took it to the chest a few times. I know what I want them to do with their so called "good" intentions.  

As to the dog poo, I'd suggest OCDed Scrudato spend her time picking this up, as she seems to be the watchdog of said item, pun intended.

Dude (I mean Carruthers) can be on cig butt duty, this would be fitting as he's much concerned on these matters and would be most likely to notice from his perch atop his bicycle.

Our drain system isn't primitive and it's also misinformation to suggest that butts will end up in the bay via the storm drains, especially as an argument attached to banned smoking in parks. The offices of the Drain Commissioner note that butts in the grassy areas would more likely remain where they are and decompose or get buried in same location. There is also a beech cleaning machine we pay for as well.
