northernraider Posted June 10, 2020 Share Posted June 10, 2020 How does a city the size of Grand Forks have all council races be unopposed? As many people that complain on the interwebs about operations, thought dozens would be lining up. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It costs local taxpayers next to nothing and provides a vital service for poor people who have few other options to get around the city. They can't afford an taxi or an uber - aholes like you would say "they should walk - they're already fat from eating junk food they bought with food stamps". That is wrong. Want to see? Go downtown and get on a bus and ride around for awhile....anytime....yes sometimes there aren't many riders but many times you'll be surprised at the number, nature, and reasons people in our community need a public bus service. Cutting the city bus won't save local taxpayers DICK but will cost us more than you know. Look into it Mr Perfect! 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SiouxForever Posted June 13, 2020 Share Posted June 13, 2020 Anything Bochamp can do to add businesses and a reason why people should come to Grand Forks minus UND hockey, a few golf courses etc. will be well monitored from the friends from the south. I wish him well, best of luck! GF needs a huge jumpstart. Lotta narrow/closed minded people running that town. Like sh^t, how many vacant businesses does GF have? The answer, too many to count.... 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The incredibly reliable and accurate gfhockey has been the only one to mention that bus service may be cut. Regardless, cutting the bus service should be seen as an attack on the poorer population in the GF area. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gfNDfan Posted June 14, 2020 Share Posted June 14, 2020 so Mr INTHEKNOW....what's your beef with the city bus service? YOU'D never use it? of course you wouldn't - you don't need to! Take a day and go down and see and talk to the people that need to have a city bus service. If you can make the time - it will shine a light you don't know about right now. Experience it...and learn how other people live. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
