Color Us Indifferent

April 12, 2021

 

The City Council in Kirkwood, MO wanted to replace old sidewalks. One member, however, wanted a stipulation that the new sidewalks not be stark white; they should be tinted to match existing sidewalks.

Other people pointed out that that would add considerably to the cost, as well as being difficult to achieve an exact match.

The councilwoman, however, voted against awarding a contract.

 

Maybe she could try crowdfunding to pay for the difference. That way she could find out just how interested members of the public are in having matching sidewalks.
