JC dissolution: Numbers don't add up to taxpayers' advantage
In response to John Sullivan's article published on Jan. 7, I would like to present some facts that refute his claims regarding the dissolution of the Village of Johnson City. As a proud lifetime resident of Johnson City, I've seen the services the village provides. Although times have changed, dissolving the village may not benefit JC residents. It hardly seems like a solution. Sullivan states we must "separate myth and government propaganda from fact." The fact of the matter is there might be an increase in costs and a decrease in efficiency if JC residents accept the Town of Union's services. Maybe the "16" would do well to understand the following information. As far as sourcing goes, all of this information can be obtained from village offices under the Freedom of Information Law.
Ex-Informant Fears Torture if Deported
More than two decades ago, Frank Enwonwu got caught smuggling five ounces of heroin into the United States from his homeland in Nigeria. He admitted his mistake and readily agreed to work as an informant, believing the U.S. had promised to keep him safe. He went on to pursue his share of the American dream, driving a cab and training as a nurse's aide - until a change in law in 1996 retroactively made him liable to be deported for his drug conviction, despite his work to help the government. .
Aurora seeks to curb 'puffing' - cars left running, unattended
Adrian Rascon-Almada left his Dodge Neon wide open and idling in a 7-Eleven parking lot Tuesday morning as he ran inside and grabbed a cup of coffee. He was gone only a few minutes. But it was long enough for police to spot him and issue him a ticket for "puffing" - leaving a car running and unattended. "It takes just a split second for someone lurking outside a 7-Eleven or day- care to take off with your car and then use it to commit another crime," Aurora police Sgt. Dan Mark said. "Puffer" thefts have become such a problem that Aurora police conducted a citywide operation targeting them Tuesday. Rascon-Almada was among 60 drivers issued tickets during the four-hour operation. His fine will be between $75 and $105, and he isn't too happy about it. "I live in the neighborhood; I left my car running before," said Rascon-Almada, 36.
Cities fight glut of vacant houses
It scares people," said Joyce Porozynski, a block watch member who has lived in the neighborhood most of her life. "Many people have given up."
Across the street from Charles Gliha's cozy 120-year-old home stand three vacant houses, including one with the first-floor windows broken out. Another is being repaired, and a sign in the window warns would-be thieves that there are no copper pipes inside.
Gliha, a woodworker, has not given up hope and has no plans to leave the home where he grew up.
"People are the critical resource and as long as we have good people like Joyce, we'll be fine," he said. "We may be in better shape in 20 years than the suburbs because we've got a culture in this neighborhood that outer ring suburbs don't."
Cleveland, among cities hardest hit by the foreclosure crisis, is modeling its land bank after a program in Genesee County, Mich., home to Flint, which made tax delinquent properties available for redevelopment.
