I am a full-time resident of the Weirs. There is NO need for this. I drive through this every day and other than some people that don't realize they have the right of way and of course bike week and holidays-it is not a problem. Gotta get that federal $$ so someone in Sioux Falls SD can pay for this nonsense that we don't need. When I was at a meeting about this I asked the that if they thought this was so bad why did they not first put huge signs up as to who has the right of way, I was basically laughed at. All these people on the city council want to do is spend $$ whether it is local, state or federal $$. The want to give Baldi over a million dollars "to not own anything"-so frustrating. They never listen to the people. This roundabout is just going to make traffic worse. We were already warned that "normal" snow plows cannot handle it and we residents will have to wait longer for plowing to be done. So now we will get to work even later. I love living in Laconia-but between this council and the new spend happy City manager from Dover-it make us wonder if we should think about moving to another town.
