"TELL IT LIKE IT IS" aaron neville



If you are serious
Don't be ashamed to let your conscience be your guide

Again today this Sunday the News-Herald did an editorial about the continuing saga of the City of Painesville and the Painesville Senior Center controversy.

Yes the editorial included the statement made by God know who calling the Painesville Senior Center  "Damaged Commodity".

Again in this editorial no mention of money? That's what  I always view as a bad sign?

One of the directors William Horvath sending numerous proposals to the city as well as the City Manager rejecting these proposals? Can someone, anyone show the public these proposals? And if not why not.

Is it the goal of the Painesville Senior Center to merge with the City of Painesville Recreation Department?  How do they propose this? How will the burden of cost's be divided. Who will have the final word?  It was attempted to be explained at the last council meeting but the speaker ran out of his three minutes.(council procedure)?

The city administration has an obligation to address the problems of the senior's but at the same time has an obligation to all residents of Painesville. Hence let's talk dollars and cent's.

Many seniors have told me the city doesn't negotiate fairly? Well if that's the case let's negotiate in public? As it should be. No entity should be browbeat. If you make a statement that someone claimed that the Senior Center was a damaged commodity at least be man enough to point out who made that statement.

My best guess the merger with the Y is turning into a bust!

Again, It appears the Senior Center made some poor decisions and now want other's to correct their mistakes. As someone always mentions "Follow the Money"



Something I learned this week .

If you are of any faith  other than Catholic, also  other than of Irish-Italian heritage you cannot get a fair shake in Painesville Municipal Court as Judge Michael Cicconetti is both! As well rumored  as a member of the local Knights of Columbus!

God help you if you are a Muslim and go in front of a Jewish judge. ( presently we have three Jewish members of the U.S. Supreme Court)

And whatever you do don't propose building a wall!  That's a case killer

Horvath should tell who made that statement damaged commodity? As it stands now it must have been the former city manager? At least that what some seniors claim.

Past CM was Pro Sr. Center Present Manager not so much. Go back in the public records. memorandum of understanding signed by Acting City Manager Doug Lewis, Gurley instructed to draw up contract. The agreement was sound included merge with city recreation keeping 3 employees and committing to form committee to explore building design and location. sr. Bd with recommendation from Sr Center Director did not sign and let it lapse. With no contract present CM didn't have to pursue. He does consider them damaged goods and Director to be aggravating. Neither CM or Sr. Center Director have thought of the future of Painevilles Residients. Sad but true

The Haves and the Have Nots - Heck even Fairport has its own Senior center and a grocery store. Ah yes, but Painesville has deck hockey and disc golf? Woopie.
