Easy to take accountability for something that obviously isn't your fault. It would ring more true if he apologized for being a giant turd sandwich for 4 years wasting a lot of time with stunts that might have otherwise been directed to stuff like this (not that it would have actually changed THIS)
It's clearly better than Gondek immediately blaming the province and federal government for city responsibilities before even knowing what caused the break.

We get it, you really don't like Farkas. But it's weird to go after him for overcommunication and even taking high road to hold himself accountable and not blame predecessors for the current hot mess as excuses.

And he's spoken at length about the mistakes as councilor and how he would approach it completely differently being humbled. So far he's been communicative as mayor and I'd rather gladly have him be obnoxious at times.

I'd rather the money go to winter tire rebates personally, I can't stand how rusty everything gets because of it, and environmentally I'm sure it's meaning a lot of cars hit the scrap yard years earlier, plus a bunch of #### in our rivers.
Thought that beet juice was tried, anyone know how that turned out
