Regarding the railroad crossing in Oneida: I'm sure our city manager has never been down there. There are a lot of people who walk across those tracks daily. Closing those tracks won't stop people from crossing them. At least if the tracks are open, people have a chance — with the lights and ringing bells — to hear the trains coming.
I read the fun summer things to do in The Journal on July 12, but noticed no activities for the city of Middletown. There are plenty of things to do in Middletown and I think it's only fair to list them.
The people who travel on University Boulevard would appreciate an update from the city. It's been torn up for weeks. We see a couple of hard hats walking around but no new progress. We'd like to know what the plans are.
