Ironic that the City of Cleveland honored the KING of demolition fund kickbacks with his very own street sign along his very first DUMP!

 I just received notice that my water bill will skyrocket even more with the additional stormwater fee attached.  In addition, the Cleveland Metropolitan School District announced today they will also be putting their levy on the November ballot (with expectation of heavier turn out)

I don't know how long major urban centers can play the HUD Funding Game - but it is killing us.  This continued practice only leads to greater income and educational disparity.  (Senior projects denoted with * - I can see the benefit and use of federal monies for these projects)

 This is a house that Cleveland Housing Network flipped in 2002-2003 while Brian Cummins was director at the Old Brooklyn Community Development Corporation:

 Eat it up! More BS from fake green councilman and Land Studio's favorite councilperson...

 There have been several favored political stooges in the history of Northeast Ohio.  Surely, Russo and Dimora stand out - and, they operated with an understanding that they, too, were above exposure.  Mike White had his bagman, Nate Gray, who took the fall for him.  But, why does the media in Northeast Ohio protect Jim Rokakis and Gus Frangos (Gus is Lou's brother and partner and heads the "Land Bank")???  

For some bizarre reason - the unraveling and brilliant detective work that solved the cold-blooded murder of 5 people on Cleveland's east side - gets very little media attention:

This week - Steven Litt and Michelle Jarboe extolled 20+ years work by attorney Anthony Coyne on City of Cleveland Planning Commission - what they don't mention is the FACT that his law firm benefited to the tune of $400 million dollars in the inflated settlement for the Cold Storage Bldg.  

There had to be more transactions, in which his position at Planning Commission helped prime work for his law firm.

Last night a big empty factory burned down at 2900 East 65th St. The Plain Dealer sent a "reporter"  to take pictures of the big blaze against the night sky. But the real story about the building and its owner "Mike" Miodrag Bugarcic wasn't mentioned. Mr. Bugarcic was arrested 6 weeks ago for shooting an alleged intruder at the property twice, although the victim of the shooting, claimed he was outside the building. He was also in intensive care and the "reporter" Brandon Blackwell who covered that story promised to follow up with his updated condition.

 I have posted this content to Citizen Dashboard category - in the Sunday Plain Dealer, editor Elizabeth Sullivan wants you to know that through the Northeast Ohio Media Group and the Plain Dealer and Cleveland.com (if you understand that evolution) - you have a greater opportunity to voice your opinion.
