I would prefer to see SOME of it spent on lasting projects, perhaps pave the parking lot in Bowring Park, add some small “parkettes” downtown. The selfish me says spend it on road improvements.
There are a thousand ways to spend that kind of money, just don’t waste it because next year you may not have such a windfall.

Totally agree with you. As with snow clearing, I think enough is being spent on road improvements. Not sure of the numbers, but as I understand there will be a massive amount spend on roads and infrastructure upgrades as it is.
