Author    Post   Dave Starr F L I N T O I D With the temperatures somewhat moderate lately, our street is 99% clear of snow & ice. So, about 120 minutes ago, a plow made 2 passes down the street without touching one snowflake!!! What does this cost? Or, is the administration too busy putting gag orders on fire fighters to notice? _________________ I used to care, but I take a pill for that now. Pushing buttons sure can be fun. When a lion wants to go somewhere, he doesn’t worry about how many hyenas are in the way. Paddle faster, I hear banjos. Wed Feb 17, 2010 2:11 pm  back again F L I N T O I D so who runs that department? _________________ even a small act of goodness may be a tiny raft of salvation across the treacherous gulf of sin, but one who drinks the wine of selfishness, and dances on the little boat of meaness, sinks in the ocean of ignorance. P.Y. Wed Feb 17, 2010 6:06 pm  untanglingwebs El Supremo That is a good question! Patrick Gerace is the Parks Director because he was illegally named Neighborhood Services Director and was allegedly reined in by council But at last nights council meeting when the issue came up about Code enforcement, Tom Mc cabe said that was no longer his job and pointed to Gerace. In other words Gerace is still performing as a Neighborhoods Services Director. Begs the question as to why we need Tom McCabe, former purchasing director now allegedly running what was DPW. You need a score card to keep track of the name changes in City Hall. Neeley and other council had to ask repeatedly in order to get an answer as to who was in charge of code enforcement. Obviously Eason did not want to say the administration was still violating the charter by keeping Gerace in his not yet approved position.
