Common Council twice warned about dangerous bus traffic downtown. Maybe if they lived downtown ...

Neither candidate for mayor, incumbent Tom Roach nor insurgent challenger Milagros Lecuona, have addressed the issue of the invasion of downtown White Plains by county, regional and private buses. Much of the increased bus traffic is on residential streets, including North Broadway, Barker Avenue, Park Avenue. Zero planning seems to be involved. ZERO.

The police said there were no passengers on the charter bus.

The more buses you allow to drive on residential streets in White Plains, the more likely people will be killed and/or injured.

Budget Bus Lines Flout the Rules With Little Consequence https://nyti.ms/2ymxCOm

You Common Council members are on notice. When some kid is killed by being hit by one of these ridiculous buses with few passengers, you'll all be sued, along with the city. Discovery will find my blog posts and my email messages to each of you. You're probably immune legally but it won't be pretty because it will still be obvious that all of you were negligent.

Meanwhile, you're focused on the stupid French school issue, which impacts a tiny percentage of White Plains citizens ... who live in multi million dollar houses. Put some affordable housing there.
