AJ has to go! He doesn't seem to have one lick of common sense. What an embarrassment to his family and the community.

705.92 Procedure for removal of elective officer by recall.

Any elective officer of a municipal corporation may be removed from office by the qualified voters of such municipal corporation. The procedure to effect such removal shall be:

(A) A petition signed by qualified electors equal in number to at least fifteen per cent of the total votes cast at the most recent regular municipal election, and demanding the election of a successor to the person sought to be removed, shall be filed with the board of elections. Such petition shall contain a general statement in not more than two hundred words of the grounds upon which the removal of such person is sought. The form, sufficiency, and regularity of any such petition shall be determined as provided in the general election laws.

(B) If the petition is sufficient, and if the person whose removal is sought does not resign within five days after the sufficiency of the petition has been determined, the legislative authority shall thereupon order and fix a day for holding an election to determine the question of the removal of the elective officer, and for the selection of a successor to each officer named in said petition. Such election shall be held not less than thirty nor more than forty days from the time of the finding of the sufficiency of such petition. The election authorities shall publish notice and make all arrangements for holding such election, which shall be conducted and the result thereof returned and declared in all respects as are the results of regular municipal elections.

Busted for stealing from Duke energy. Good luck with that 15%, although the south main st. crowd would most likely sign it twice.

He won't be recalled, unless criminal charges are filed. He also won't be re-elected.

He probably won't get reelected because Middletown has done away with the ward system.

All candidates are at-large.

That kid is heading down the wrong path. He had so much promise for his democrat party. Now he is an embarrassment.

Whenever I hear a "loud, banging sound" outside my house during daylight hours, the first thing I do is run outside with my gun in hand....don't you? Of course, that's only when I have my utilities illegally connected. Heck, I'd be afraid that someone was trying to steal my illegal electricity...or something like that. By the way, should we check to see how the water service from the City of Middletown is connected? We certainly wouldn't want him to be stealing water from the City (which he represents).   CH Moore.

According to a family member of mine who had AJ in some of his classes when he was in high school, he didn't have much promise to start with.

This represents our city poorly. Granted, not as bad as Laura Williams or the lady who got arrested running around in a cow costume, but a black eye nonetheless.

I wonder if Mayor Mulligan will address this at the next council meeting and again ask for AJ to resign. I notice that the meeting wont' be held at Sunset where National Night Out is going on this evening, but I don't think that's been done in several years. Laura Williams probably ruined that idea with her behavior several years ago berating a citizen making a comment (that oddly didn't make it onto TVM).

no excuses or defense from spiderjohn
 
still--no charges filed by anyone.
This will sort itself out in the proper direction--don't  worry.
Also--don't be distracted from the REAL local issues:
Job Creation
Tremendous increase in crime--robbery, aggravated robbery, various theft and burglaries
Was there a recent HUD visit that didn't gel with Mr.A's master plan?
Will we be adding MORE vouchers?
What is the current and expected tally?
What about the high % of empty housing stocki that is being held up from forclosure, and currently in limbo(very bad/dangerous imo)?
 
 
Will we see LEGAL theft of Duke electric IF council approves the streetlight installation on S Main St, which would increase the citizens'  charge to operate these lights. Going from $117 to $460 MONTHLY per section, and to increase in time. Is this also going on in the Highlands district, Aberdeen, the former downtown area and anywhere else where this  type of lighting has been installed? Seems it would be very simple to assess these affected residents the electric billing difference monthly on their water bills(pro-rated), since the city is already planning a streetlight assessment to be placed on the same bill. So--is the assessment partially necessary because of the increased costs of operating ornamental lighting in select areas? Shouldn't those property owners foot the bill since they recieve the benefit?
 
I don't see how any Councilmember would approve this ordinance as written, especially since no one has brought forth a consistent set of cost figures. Can we have the same lighting, conditions and costs in other neighborhoods?

I know AJ very well. He also worked for me. Was excused from employment do to his lack of respect of authority. No surprise there! He is a punk and needs to go. He also been seen in associating with a known drug dealer. This from a very reliable source. He has also been seen getting fast food and stating it was to go, than sat down in the establishment and are all to avoid paying $0.13 tax.
 
By the way, how does one buy a home with no job??? City council does not pay that much.
 
So lets see, has a gun, associates with a known drug dealer, steals utilities. You all put the pieces together.
 
AJ NEEDS TO GO!

I have no problem with him having a gun. IF the report is true that he didnt  threaten him or make any threatening remarks towards the Duke employee.    Thats his right as a concealed weapon holder.   Stealing electric is another issue.

He needs to go and be with his drug dealing buddies!

Like Voleye said, having a gun is a non issue unless he threatened someone with it.

Dont think the gun is a issue either,but putting a gun in a unstable persons hands is a different story.Whoever gave him a permit needs their head examined.
I like to know also with someone that dont have a job and only income is being on council how can they afford a house?For someone that owes money to the board of election and walks out on tabs make the common man say,"Things that make you go Hmmmmmmmm." Say it slowly and all together,Laundering.LOL

A few comments. First, AJ Smith will not be charged, as he did not threaten bodily harm to the Duke employee and any "turn-off" would be easily remedied by Duke---its called a $75.00 reconnect fee plus his electric utilization.

Not to turn this into a gun issue.  But you would be really suprised how many people carry a weapon 24/7.  Not just in Middletown either.

Does anyone know what AJ does for a living?

I agree, I'm surprised at how many people carry guns these days. Watch out bad guys.

Hey I am a strong supporter of concealed carry laws, and the only reason I haven't gotten my Ohio permit (I've been a past holder of both Florida and Pennsylvania permits) is that the times I am outside of my house generally I am doing something or going somewhere that doesn't allow concealed carrying.

But here's the problem - he was NOT CONCEALING the weapon. Running out of your house gun drawn at a noise is not a smart tactic. There are better ways to check out a noise without automatically escalating by coming out with gun in hand (which by the way is NOT concealed carry but open carry).

Also, one doesn't have to have a CCW permit to have a firearm in their home. But bringing it outside and brandishing it can be construed as inciting panic, or so I was told by a very nice officer a few years ago when they responded to my apartment building because a neighbor who didn't know me saw me showing my newly purchased shotgun to another neighbor on the porch as I got home from purchasing it and called the police.

Katie McNeill has been on the board forever. Since the 90's I think. Tyus has made a home on the board for many years also, hasn't he? No one wants the headaches so no one who would offer a choice for voters has run. The school board offers the same old tired ideas with no new revelations on the horizon as to ideas. Just keeps floating along with everyone conducting the same mundane business each meeting and paddling in circles. Hasn't been anything revolutionary from any board in the past 30 years. Must be a stepping stone for higher political aspirations ala Scott Nein.

Yes, Ms. McNeil has been on the board for a long time--1996 or 1997.  Not before then however.  She ran for Judy Thorn's open seat when Judy opted not to run for re-election.
 
But that's not what I was asking.  Nor was I attempting to engage in debt about someone's success or failures on the BOE.  Acclaro stated that there is a BOE member going on 30 years right now.  The last time I checked, 30 years would be 1981.  So I am curious who he believes has been on the BOE for 30 years.

Open Carry is perfectly legal in Ohio and most states (as it should be).  Even if he was carrying it openly, he did nothing wrong.  Had he done something wrong, they would have jumped to charge him.
