The mayor job should go to a person who has lived in the City, paid City taxes, and experience living in the City, and committed to the City.

Excellent credentials? When did Watkins serve as a Mayor? What did he do for the municipality? The man takes our tax dollars out of the City to give to other municipalities.
Watkins claims to be a Christian, but rather than accept the Christianity that Jesus started, he made up his own brand of Christianity; he created his own gods in his own image.
If Watkins cannot be loyal to God, how could we possibly trust him to be loyal to the residents of Lackawanna?
Thank you so much for saving Inee's Pub from the wrecking ball! Yes, Lackawanna needs ANOTHER PUB/TAVERN/BAR with a "beautiful facade"!!!! One building at a time, Mr. Szymanski, one building at a time....???????
You mean one building at ELECTION TIME? LOL You'll never see him around a building again afterwards. BTW he isn't doing jack! The cop oops I mean local businessman that bought it is. Talk about connections.......same bs, same faces ,same party poopers, even though its a "different /new" candidate the people behind him are one and the same! Nothing will ever change. I don't know which guy is worse Him or "Common Sense and Hard Work" Jaworski LOL. If he had any sense the city wouldn't be where it is.
Suddenly after six years as city council, Mr. Szymanski has decided to publish a little newsletter to "get the message out" to the citizens of Lackawanna...to "keep you informed of the issues." Other than patting yourself on the back for saving Inee's Pub from the wrecking ball, WHAT ISSUES are you talking about?
the Mayor should have to live in the city, they all should! It just takes one phone call to report!
People don't want lame ass excuses! They want action. Geoff and Chuck had their chance. We can't do nothing is their answer. People elsewhere react to the problem not give excuses. Chuck and Geoff have done nothing the whole time they have been on the council.
I have lived in the second ward for approximately 14 years the last six of which have been with Mr. Szymanski as my councilman. I can guarantee you that the crack heads had nothing to do with this ridiculous flood zone that we have and the unsurmountable cost associated with it. I know that I could put some of that money that I would be saving into making my home a nicer property but somehow the crackheads caused that. I had alternate parking on my street during the winter months from November to April well someone had a brainstorm of an idea that it was needed during the Spring, Summer and Fall months too. Probably should thank the crack heads for that also. Mr. Szymanski hasnt done a thing for the citizens of the second ward except use them to try and catapult his career. Wake up Lackawanna lets get off this same ole same ole crap. He will use all the citizens of Lackawanna to take his next step. If he had put as much effort and energy into helping the people of the second ward as he has put into establishing his life long political career we would have much to thank him for. I saqy he has had his chance to proof himself and aqs common as it is in Lackawanna I must give him a failing grade so please lets break tradition and instead of passing him on lets teach him by passing him over. One must wonder how the great police force of Lackawanna like it when someone says that the second wards problems are all caused by the crackheads who took the ward over, and that the police while working on this problem seem not to have been able to stop it in the last six years. I am sorry but I think our police force does a great job.
