"R-E-S-P-E-C-T " aretha franklin



I'm about to give you all my money
And all I'm askin' in return, honey
Is to give me my proper's


Attended a well attended Town Hall Meeting last night at City Hall.
We learned the in's and out's of cold patch and Asphalt patch why they were used and when they couldn't be.

Fire Chief Mlachak gave a presentation of the mass notification system used by Painesville City. This is something al residents should be signed up for.
Along with emergency situations you can get Council news,  Utility news, Recreation news, Cemetery news. Construction & Road closure. Even non-resident's can sign up. Say you have a parent living in Painesville and you make your home in Mentor you can be made aware of what's happening in Painesville! Thanks Chief.

Now the RESPECT issue.

At the last Town Hall I listened as a resident complained about a garage built next to him. Curiosity made me drive by this garage. Well to be honest as a kid we built more stable tree houses. This garage might withstand a 15 mph wind at best. Teaching me some complaint's are very valid.
Now last night another neighbor complained about noise and rowdiness from a business next to his property. I am not being judgmental but does a nearby neighbor have the right to complain about noise from a business?  Are there one set of rules for residents and another for businesses?  To the point police have an obligation no matter what the circumstances to treat all resident's with respect. PITA maybe but you are still there to protect their rights as well as doing everything you can from this situation escalating.

A Painesville resident has been robbed three times. With a loss of  thousands of dollars. Police say it is still an 'open' case. Also some of her costume jewelry has been seized  returned just not enough evidence to file charges. Well the police asked her for photographs of her wearing the items. Now it's claimed the pictures are even lost. This resident claims the Police Chief won't even return her calls? This doesn't appear the way a city should conduct themselves.

Also brought up was the number of construction jobs around town that start Friday afternoon and are ended by Monday morning. That's motivation is to avoid permits?

Seems many feel the local government isn't proactive for residents. Both issues mentioned will be with a sit down with administrator's and resident's.

Thanks again to Councilman DeLoene and Councilwoman Shoop.

And in closing I asked if there was anything they would like to share with us? No, but the parking garage project started today? Shhh! secret!

Witnessed another cluster F#@K Railroad shuts down Mentor Ave. at tracks diverting traffic onto W. Jackson St. No PPD, no LCS no one directing traffic. Is this no man's land? Railroads can be made to pay for traffic officers . Someone tell somebody!

Was the poorly-built garage on Parkview Drive, by chance? There's one on that street in such bad shape, I've seen deer blinds that were sturdier.

I would invite everyone to drive by the "garage" on W High St.
I am not sure why the City administration or Building Dept seems to have adopted a "hands off" on this one. The structure is no where close to meeting any building code that I am aware of.
It is a pole structure with no foundation, no proper siding and no roofing material on the roof.
How is this allowed??

11:53 never witnesses a building built with 2x2 and no footer's?
When I viewed it I thought it was a joke!
I don't believe they have.

The gentleman who permitted this garage was hired by Mr Carson. His buddy, a cronie from his years in the Warren area. Now this man apparently turned in his notice but was asked to continue for a couple weeks then go. So its ok to hire your buds, let them make mistakes like this garage? And instead of being fired by Carson, hes asked to stay on? Whats wrong with this picture? Gotta wonder what else has gone with this guy?
