"I'VE JUST SEEN A FACE" beatles


I've seen a face
I can't forget the time or place



As most of you know yesterday was the first day for our new city manager Monica Irelan. If she's smart she will learn quickly who amongst us hides a knife behind them. Who she can trust and who better not to. This will go a long way in making her career choice to come to Painesville successful.

My only suggestion to her is don't take cost estimates at face value. Things around here can easily double and I don't always believe it was a mistake.

She is fortunate she has a good assistant city manager who can save her time and mistakes if he so choses. He has no desire to replace her at all.

I feel like I'm 1 for 2 on city managers,  hope this one works out.

Now comes the first odd occurrence.

Ms. Irelan will have a meet and greet at the Fish Bar.

Fish Bar
11 Chester St.
Painesville

On December Thursday December 15,2016
4-6 pm

But you need a Reservation?

Call (440) 392-5801

Maybe to me the Fish Bar (Old Chester's) seems small?

And why would a resident want to make a reservation?

What Steele Mansion or Rider's Inn was full up that evening?

I guess we could of parked the fire trucks outside for a few hours and had it at City Hall without Reservations?

O.K. Like the last post it's that time of year,

Will someone explain what Jack Sparro driving a dirty 70' Challenger that passes a bull walking on the other side of the road along with stopping in the dessert to bury or dig up something, what's he peddling?

My point is that the more people she meets the better off she will be.

RESERVATIONS! class-less

You really can't figure out the reservation request? That's so city hall can filter who get's to meet and greet her. You call up sorry all filled up! If say one of the mover's and shaker's no problem.
They will do everything in their power to keep her in the dark for as long as they can. Your right she had better watch her back!

So it's a conspiracy? You and 1101 are insane. The meet and greet is for the public, perhaps it serves as a head count to be sure the bar knows how many to expect. 1101, you really think if someone like Term drops his name the bar or someone within the city will say they "No room for you"? Thats silly, but wait, it is Terminator so perhaps he will be on the naughty list!

HaHa, gotta love conspiracy theories! I have one maybe it is so they don't have more people show up than will fit in the back room at fish bar!

1:41/3:12 There is no conspiracy only a question with numerous venues around town why pick one of the smallest ones?
So if you didn't make a "Reservation" you don't get to meet and greet the new city manager. Myself I'll wait until Monday night. Conspiracy theory just curious. Nice article in today's N/H.

Maybe its because when a person calls to say they are coming, city people know who to point out those who have that knife behind them? Say a few that show up to council meetings monthly and reek havoc constantly??

You have a problem with everything. If there was not any type of meeting you'd complain. Since there was one, you have to complain about where it was held and the fact a heads up as to the number attending. You are the kind of person to gripe about everything and no one or nothing ever pleases you. You should try to see the silver linings in the clouds instead of the storms.

Went to the meet and greet at the Fish Bar last night. New City Manager seems very approachable and interested in meeting everyone including residents and business people. Much different then the previous 2 city managers neither of which I felt really wanted to talk with anyone outside of city hall. The city employees said she has been a whirlwind all week going to various group functions every night to try and meet as many people as she can. I found her quite refreshing and energetic, lets hope everyone will give her a fair chance.

Regarding the reservations, I believe that was only because they did have a table of appetizers at the function so they needed to know how many to prepare for.

7:05 Everyone has nothing but positive comments on our new city manager.
3:24 Thinking back you are right. Reservations no big deal. A head count for appetizer's? Glad it went well. Myself I will wait until Monday's council meeting.
2:14 Reek Havoc? Or just telling you about it?
Come sit with me you will quickly learn what havoc looks like.
