"GO YOUR OWN WAY" fleetwood mac

Monday night ended an era in Painesville. Council-President Joseph Hada ended his servive on council.
As the title suggests Joe went his own way in his 32 years on council. This was a commitment to the residents in Painesville. I respect Joe for all the sucess he has had in life. Mary and Joe raised three children in Painesville all who attend Painesville schools and have all suceeded in life.
Mary and Joe have over 50 years of service to this community and are proud to claim Painesville as home.

Now anyone who serves the amount of time Joe  has, some mistakes were made, who among us wouldn't have?

Sometimes I think Joe thought he knew better. I guess  if your going to be a leader you have to think that way. Washington crossing the Delaware. Great idea. Col. Custer at Little Big Horn well not such a great idea.

My hope is that the new council not only acts but also listens to residents. Disagreement shouldn't be viewed with hostility but please take the time to listen and consider.

That said council will not be the same without Joseph Hada.

Have to wonder why no story in the News-Herald?

Now everything passed on the agenda. As a note to some of you when I arrived at 7:15 pm the courtroom was filled with both people wishing to see what council would do with the immigration resolution?
Everyone stood for the "Pledge of Allegence" I guess there was an issue of people coming in after the pledge.
On the agenda it was not listed and will not be addressed at council at least until the second meeting in January?
Lori DiNallo as well as many others thought something even if just a discussion would be started at Mondays meeting. I understand one lady drove as far as Mantua to attend te meeting.
My suggestions is to keep your phone calls coming to council members.
