It took an additional year, but former Lackawanna Mayor Norman L. Polanski Jr. has ended up in a coveted job as executive director of the city’s Municipal Housing Authority.
The authority’s board of commissioners voted 6-0 on Saturday to appoint Polanski to a three-year term as head of the agency, which owns and operates three apartment complexes with 490 units and a budget of about $4 million.

Many years ago I can remember reading an article on the corruption in the city of Lackawanna.
This article in the Courier Express written by either Walter Winchell or Drew Pearson who stated he would rather be Mayor of Lackawanna NY than the President of the United States.
The game is the same just the names change.
Actually,
Just the first names.........the family and friends club members ALL stay the same!
P.S.
Don't forget his FREE, new, SUV to drive less than 4 miles ROUND TRIP back and forth to his job EVERY DAY in.......oh, pardon me, and to go home to lunch with!
And.....................All I can do is shake my head!
