Police Impound Lot to Generate $135K/yr

Besides shrinking the size of Middletown's lower-income and minority population through the wrecking ball, why not down-size unnecessary City staff too?  Did you ever consider that Queen Judy?

Knowing the illogical way this city is run. Knowing this city has driven out all large revenue producers except AK. Knowing that because these large revenues are no longer available to the city to pilfer from. Knowing that the city has recognized that the only revenue generating source is the taxes from the meager wages that workers make, is it any wonder that these same people, who are now scrounging for the scraps of any little pathetic money generator they can think of, would come up with this pathetic little tidbit to add a meager $135 thou to a budget of millions? This won't make a dent in helping pay for what is important in this town. What's next Council, (besides your little red light violation money generating program), a lemonade stand on every corner to contribute to the city's plight? How about selling raffle tickets to spend a day with the city manager. That ought to really bring in the dough. How about city-wide car washes to support the city budget? What 's.

Will her majesty Queen Judy ever realize that Middletown isn't an upper middle-income community like Pickerington?  She's accustomed to working only in affluent suburban municipalities and Middletown was/is a bad fit for her!  And, how disappointing that those City Council members who were committed to removing two key senior level staff are now active participants in the love fests that we witness twice each month from the municipal building horseshoe! 

Just read the article on the impound lot so my above questions were answered.

Hmmmmmmmm, no experience with Section 8, no experience with excessive poverty, no experience with the elderly, No experience with HUD etc. and Middletown was suppose to be a move up in City Management?  Now we know where Kohler fits into this picture.

This brings up more questions:

Arwendt   You know that is what they are looking at. Look out 2nd ward the poor ward, dont let your car set at the curb to long you will get taged and towed. My neighbor called the police to let them know they were going away for 2 weeks and there truck would be parked in front of there house. The police told them there truck would be towed for setting to long in front of there house.

Oh that is just too funny!!!
