HAS THE GODFATHER OF DEVELOPMENT TAKEN OVER TREMONT WEST DEVELOPMENT CORP,

Has the Godfather of community development taken over Tremont West Development Corp.  Will Catania West Development Corp. be the local community organization run by Bevis and Butthead?  While many agree that the head honcho is indeed due for a "bitch" slappin,'  others are pondering as to what the urban king of development might be whispering in the ears of fellow committee members.

At tonight's Long Range Planning Committee it was a wonder of wonders that  the highfalutin ass had little to say on most of the subject discussions but kept his chair in a rocking motion as he weaved from side to side hissing no doubt tyrannical words of guidance in the hearing orphesus (spelling) of the sitting co-chairs. 

Is Tremont West under seige?  There are points to ponder since a number of Tremont residents took the time to come out and attempted to participate in the community planning process, each time a question was posed, all eyes from leadership positions immediately diverted to the lordly Italian.

Apparently somebody unloosened his muzzle because when the subject of my being a member of the committee as opposed to his labeling of my being a lowly "community participant" topped the table, he had plenty to say.  I guess I'll always be on the s...t list of this so called community organization because of my news prose in the Plain Press. 

However, the urgan mafia leader must have been confused because he and his apple polishers seemed to be of the opinion that I don't count as a resident.  The fact that several of us started a new coalition (the OSS) which is openly publicized that there is no affiliation with Tremont West Development Corp., has ired a few. 

The question of the day would be, What is the development genius doing managing community properties when he can't keep his own out of foreclosure?

you're so welcome.  I couldn't help myself.  After last night's meeting and this sanctimonious watchdog and his minions sat there and try to sell me a line crap I felt like blowing my fuse. 

It was no big deal with the exception when you're starring then right in the face and you know they're making up the rules as they go along. 

Out of the twelve attendees there were only three or four jesters in his court that had any say so.  It reminds me of a Johnny Cash song.  "Daddy sang bass, mama sang tennor, me and littile brother joined right in." 

My mom had some basement work done about a week ago and his spying ass drove around and around the block trying to peep in the back yard.  He was even over in the church lot, stretching his neck all ogle eyed  taking pictures.  He was yelled at by my sister and really early the next morning that peeper was back. 

There's got to be a reason he can get away with verbally attacking residents, screaming at people who attend these meetings, why they cover for him when he pulls a line of bullshit, it like he's the Taflon Don of Tremont - nobody can touch him or won't?

Sammy needs a drug test

most employers would be demanding a drug test if we acted this way! Why not here?

Well, I think a lot of people think he's smokin' something strange but who will challenge him - the only person with any authority to control his heiness is Chris Garland, TWDC's  Executive Director and they as thick as thieves.  Sammy runs around acting like a bully and Chris follows him around scooping up the shit.  the rest are either afraid of him or just don't care.

Remember the morality play

  Tremont acted out on Frank Giglio. Sammy Catania is a plot device. Look again at some of the players behind the scene--the Landmark Commission, Herb Crowther, Jim Rokakis, Cleveland Restoration Society, Joe Cimperman, the Cleveland Foundation...?  Who controls this bad play?

Sorry, this was a duplicate

Laura,

 

This may be true but it does not explain or excuse his bad behavior.  He's going to keep  running around letting his mouth write checks his ass can't cash and somebody is going to clock his time.

You know that Guy Templeton

You know that Guy Templeton and Yogi have been barred from posting on several web cites for his proliferating.  But it was my study of Guy's postings that led me to believe that he might be more intune to what's going on this diverse and poverty stricken community.

A quote taken from one of Guy's postings in January 2009, stated:

"There is only one thing in the world worse than being talked about, and that is not being talked about." - Oscar Wilde.

Guy is smarter than you  think.  As a matter of fact, he is the first one that caused me to ponder that idea that the "mafia" was among us.  Another post in January, 2009, he stated that "Sammy is acting like the mafia."  

It was Guy who also put me on the alert that Sammy was sneaky.  He posted that at at a committee meeting in January, certain powers were put in play to bait him while Sammy ran his video camera in the middle of him (Guy) losing his cool, which was surely not a nice thing for the TWDC SII Development Director to do. 

I have been paying attention to many of Guy and Yogi's warnings. 

 

Guy is smart.

 It is a mistake to think otherwise.
