Return our bus bench

Thu., Feb. 2, 2012

For over a year, I have been trying to get a bus bench at Cascade and Lincoln replaced. The original bus bench was removed. I sit on a rock three times a week since it was removed.

I spoke about it to the former mayor, the City Council, the county, firefighters, Washington Trust Bank and STA. Nothing has been done.

The elderly and people with small children use that bus stop. Quit passing the buck; give us back our bus benches.
