Dubh Aingeal Posted November 20, 2006 Posted November 20, 2006 In an effort to handle its nighttime public urination problem, Victoria, the capital of British Columbia, is considering installing high-tech urinals that disappear below street level during the day. Then at night, an operator comes by with a remote and the Urilift hydraulically lifts to sidewalk level in about two minutes. Then the unit is ready to serve all the nighttime party animals who don't mind peeing in a very exposed public urinal. The $75,000 system has been installed across the Netherlands, and have spread to London and Belfast, but Victoria will be the first North American city to try them out."
BrassFusion Posted November 21, 2006 Posted November 21, 2006 Silly me, I thought those had already been implemented.
Homicidalheathen Posted November 21, 2006 Posted November 21, 2006 I hate the laws in this country. You can't go use all public restrooms.....some places make you buy something first. So this means If I am poor and have to pee in the city, I run the risk of a ticket I cannot already afford! I understand they try to keep the bums out but......I don't look like one......do I??? And, they are trying to pass a law where people like me with bowl incontinence problems have a card they can show people so if it is a public faucility you would HAVE to let me use your bathroom......like I have time to go flash someone my card and discuss this if I really need to go...... We need public porta potties on every corner........ But in Detroit they probably would get taken over by the homeless. I worked in construction and once a bum went into one of our job site potties and made the most horrible mess.....and was still sleeping in it the next morning.

So maybe we should try to solve the whole "homelessness" problem before we solve the "no public potties" problem.
