$17 Million Street Repaving Investment Upgrading More Than 190 Streets Across the City

Buffalo Mayor Christopher P. Scanlon announced a $17 million infrastructure investment which includes milling and paving more than 190 streets across the City of Buffalo.
“Investing in our infrastructure is one of the most important initiatives under my administration,” said Mayor Christopher P. Scanlon. “This year’s repaving program and $17 million investment is one of the most comprehensive in recent memory and reflects our commitment to delivering improved, safer, and more reliable roads for everyone who lives, works, and drives in Buffalo.”
The 2025 repaving program is funded through the City of Buffalo’s capital budget and state/federal infrastructure funds. The schedule for paving locations is subject to weather conditions and other construction-related factors.
Department of Public Works Commissioner Nate Marton said, “This year’s city-wide paving program deliver’s on the Mayor’s commitment to impact and improve all areas of the city, as new roadways surfaces improve both the quality of travel for drivers, cyclists, and pedestrians and the quality of life for our residents. We are appreciative of Mayor Scanlon and the Common Council for their support and funding to improve Buffalo’s infrastructure, and of course to our federal and state partners as well.”
Milling began last week in the City’s Masten District, with paving already underway and set to continue, weather permitting.

Australian reporter lays into fleeing Rick Scott over unconstitutional ‘witch hunt’



An Australian TMZ reporter confronted Sen. Rick Scott (R-FL) outside a Senate hearing Thursday, challenging him to explain how punishing someone for using the Fifth Amendment could be constitutional.

The Senate Homeland Security and Governmental Affairs Committee had just voted 8-5 along party lines to hold former top federal health official Dr. Anthony Fauci in contempt of Congress for invoking his Fifth Amendment right 111 times at a hearing last week. TMZ reporter Charlie Cotton caught Scott in the hallway immediately after.

"Now maybe I'm just, like, not in the know because I'm Australian," Cotton said to Scott, "but how can you hold someone in contempt and punish someone for using a constitutional right? Isn't it there to use as a right?"

Scott argued Fauci had no grounds to use it.

"He had a pardon, so he — he didn't have that right to do that once he had the pardon," the senator said.

"But didn't he have risk of prosecution because if he'd misspoke, or if he'd lied or something?" Cotton pressed.

"Yeah, if he lied," Scott admitted.

"So he was at risk?" Cotton pointed out.

"He didn't have the right," Scott insisted.

"But not from the hearing," Cotton said, "because the hearing — if he lied, you said that he could be held, you know, accountable for that."

"He could've just told the truth," Scott said. "That's all he had to do."

"Well, he felt like it was a witch hunt," Cotton pushed back, "and you guys would stop at nothing to catch him and send him to prison."

"That's not my intention," Scott said. "I just want to get information."

"It's Rand Paul's intention, though," Cotton pressed.

"No," Scott said. "It's for his actions."

As Cotton was asking his next question, the Republican senator quickly walked away.

"Yep. Okay then," the TMZ reporter said.

Former federal prosecutor Neama Rahmani told Newsweek that invoking the Fifth was "the right legal move" — the pardon covered past conduct, but pleading the Fifth protected Fauci from perjury charges based on anything he said at the hearing.

As CEO of Columbia/HCA, Scott himself invoked the Fifth Amendment 75 times in a 2000 civil deposition while the company faced a federal investigation that led to a $1.7 billion settlement — at the time the largest Medicare fraud case in American history, Florida Phoenix reported.

Sen. Rand Paul (R-KY) planned to hand-deliver the contempt referral to the Justice Department Thursday, bypassing a full Senate floor vote, CBS News reported.
