A political ploy and Sorrento got caught in the middle.
I tried to convince the boys back in March that it was the wrong decision because I knew it would be anti-business and halt Sorrento trucks, a huge employer of Lackawanna Citizens.
Poor planning and strong arm tactics to get the State to take over Ridge Road.
Now our pizza is going to cost more and the $100,000 the City spent on lawyers will soon cause lack of some kind of public benefit in Lackawanna.
It did not have to happen, the king and his court played poli-tricks, it back-fired big---and once again, WE, the unsuspecting public are left holding the bag for their incompetence.
Shame.
We need a Control Board immediately, so something like this NEVER happens again! DiNapoli--HELP!

Not my intention, keyboard. You are again making assumptions without having all the facts. I went to court and gave testimony against what they did to the truckers and Sorrento.
I tried to make positive changes my 4 years in office, why do you think they ganged up to get me out---everything has to be their idea and they control the public by lack of knowledge! They let out only what they want them to know. Money, it is all about the money. Follow the money and you will find the truth.
You are the one laying blame without seeing things with your own eyes and really investigating the truth.
You say I let it happen?--Whoa, don't lump me in ---I told the news, how could I force them to listen to just me. It heated up when the court case broke. Where were you? People power needs to move the arrogant, pompous politicians out in order for the democratic process to really rule.
You don't even know me, and time will allow the real truths to surface.

Actually Keyboard, Andrea was the only Council Member who voted against this and was unable to raise hell publicly about it because it was in litigation. I know Andrea was the ONLY Council Member who personally went and spoke to Sorrento after the first ordinance was enacted.
I am wondering if this whole mess was started because two of polanski's family members were fired from working at Sorrento. That is what I have heard. Hmmmm, makes one wonder!!

What is your suggestion as to what she should have done? Talked about it here while it was in litigation??
This might work. By the way Ms. Haxton brought this up at a council meeting in September or in October.The city attorney shut her down and then I was shut down during the Q and A session at the end of meeting when I asked how much money the city spent on legal fees on this very thing by Council President Jaworski. So I had to circumvent the question.
I have issue with someone who constantly complains and points the finger at everyone else. Whether its true or not, when it comes from a politician it does get obnoxious.
I want to hear solutions from politicians---I want politicians to take initiative and solve problems or offer solutions to problems. I don't want to hear them complaining about each other all the time. That's my issue. Didn't say that she doesn't have good ideas or what not, she probably does. But when you constantly complain and point the finger at people it kinda diminishes your position a little bit...
Think about the kid that always got picked on in school----he/she got picked on MORE because they complained. It doesn't matter if they were right or wrong, that's how it went.
