No need to plow. The cars will pack the snow into hard pack and just drive on top...

Give all city workers police powers. All of them. DPW, kindergarten teachers, librarians, lunch ladies...you name it. Raise property taxes and initiate a special tax for renters. Use the money to create a slush fund that will pay out settlements for beatings of innocent citizens. Also, grant them a cut of each ticket they write. Also they can write a ticket for whatever they want. Just make something up. They can write you a ticket for eating a ham sandwich in public.
I know it seems like I am changing more than one thing, but I'm just fleshing out the idea expressed in the first sentence.

i'd sell polar park and grant free health or education to all worcesterians (your choice) bc annoying the loudest will frustrate and anger the most.

Putting 290 underground and freeing up a ridiculous amount of space for parks and pedestrian friendly walkways? Don't threaten me with a good time.

2x or 3x the trash bag cost. Also get rid of the large bags.

That would actually be amazing for the city, once it's completed. 290 cutting the city in half is really bad urban planning.

The rotary on grafton street in front of the Pizza Hut, that’s widened out so much that only one car can go thru. So good luck to emergency responders and big trucks because the sidewalk is also widened out at the edges of the blocks so there’s no passing anywhere at all or anywhere to swerve to the side

Yeah but based around driving in Worcester this will piss off a lot more people than it makes happy.

Leave all of the roadkill in the roads, so passers by can keep track of the passage of time through the decay of their local roadkill.
Or Until the animal is finally flattened and ground into the road, only leaving a smudge mark.
I have been watching a dead beaver? Woodchuck? decay for 3 weeks now 😒

They were very nice! Good drinks and treats as well. The arboretums were our favorite part. A bit crowded in spots, but nothing crazy. Ticket prices are a bit much, but that’s everything nowadays, and it’s a great place to support anyway. But tickets are selling like hot cakes, so make that decision now.

I would fly to Florida and bring back Mike Gaffney and put him back on the city council.
