baby is being thown out with bathwater
this extraordinarily useful voice of the people likely has run its course under current arrangements. it seems clear to me that the pages have been turned and that our best, brightest, and most available citizens need to come foward and declare for office as well as sponsor significant infrastructurea changes that could put this city back on equal footing.
the current lot up north have had some casualties and some right thnking people have seen city hall, the school district, and ther same ol same ol names being ginned up for offices, commussions, etc…it remains a dual city and shamefully many of us have made direct overtures for inclusion into the ranks of the advisor, consultant, etc… but we we either “crude”, unkknown, or some other facet of non-performance related criteria.
this city is experiencing some tremors as it; not all caused by the economy. some are caused by a lack of skilled negotiators; others by failing to ideate and lock in what a development needs as much as the developer,.
as important, the city has taken its property tax and school tax base and left these in the worse of hands.where this a private businesss it would have closed years ago. failing to treat it as a viable business will keep this fumbling district from lowering it sights further while praying for even more funding to keep it going and afloat, Like Pilate, the city fathers wash their fingers of it failing to notice that a vibrant district is paramoount to a vibrant city. where is the business plan? how much will we have to dip into the funds market? what is our occupancy rate per school?
city hall likes to tell us how safe we are even after 18 mini-write ups appeared over last weekende in new rochelle alone.if we have fire and police facilities where grown up cities place a few; downtown, maybe this would not look so dismal
Yet chuck strome suggests we open up first provider contracts to effect better terms — easy enough to do under the Taylor law; stupid as hell of a thing to do under a settled contract during recessionaary times.you all need to fight this like hell. there is stimulus money; find it PRONTO
we need new arrangements and new blood. folks like Negrin need to step forward among many others,need to change over to a strong mayor; this is not a damn playground but a large city. get it on the ballot along with a change in how school boards are formed.every city councilperson needs someone to run agains them as they have shown practically no initiative in taking on this city.strome needs to go as the job is too big for him. so does organisciak who is simply incompetent as are a number of his direct reports. a proper collective bargaining stance must be taken with the unit;
i am skilled and strong but i am also 73 years old. i would volunteer to work for the first individual i thought would have the love and capacity to run this city.
bruce negrin– what do you say? can you find some others/ Can you locate some people downtown as well who love this city?
enough is enough warren gross
Radio Show
WVOX can be grating at times but this new rochelle news and views is a pretty informative show. I do not know Bruce Negrin other than from here and the radio but he has an entertaining show. Bruce keep it up
