Cuyahoga County, where Cleveland is located has an 18 on the corner of their tags.<BR/><BR/>I had that same problem with the house that I had inherited. I feel that I was penalized because I lived 40+ miles away. I had to make the decision to sell the house for 24,000 when the fair market value was 36,000.<BR/><BR/>I went back to the neighborhood 6 months later and there was nothing done to the house, save a few windows boarded up. The grass was overgrown(I had kept the yard up the year before) and there was garbage strewn in the yard. I wanted to cry.<BR/><BR/>Like I indicated in my post, the city of Cleveland has no regard for those employed there who live outside of Cuyahoga County.Cliffhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08322086604599640345noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-33436317.post-85684475843090222582008-02-08T10:52:00.000-05:002008-02-08T10:52:00.000-05:00I know your pain,Cliff.We are going through this t...I know your pain,Cliff.We are going through this too!Stylinhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01934065600057813575noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-33436317.post-41023720593293468342008-02-08T08:10:00.000-05:002008-02-08T08:10:00.000-05:00Unfortunately this happens in our neighborhood too...Unfortunately this happens in our neighborhood too. My walk lights were trashed a couple weeks ago, and when the police came they said they don't patrol up our way because "there are no problems". My answer to that was "That's what you told me last time I called you up here"!!!! Oddly enough the Trading Post lists other calls to our neighborhood. No Problems?? Think agaain!! Sorry you had troubles Cliff, all the murders happening in Cleveland lately, you would think they'd be more worried about those things than your muffler!!<BR/><BR/>Have a better day today.<BR/><BR/>B.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-33436317.post-15560455154986076102008-02-08T08:09:00.000-05:002008-02-08T08:09:00.000-05:00Man, that just stinks!

Police response time is so quick here, it scary.<BR/><BR/>When I lived in my old community, what some called the "ghetto" --- police response time was anywhere from 1 day to 1 year! I am not joking. By the time they would get there, we would have forgotten the crime or who committed it.<BR/><BR/>Everybody is entitled to rant, it human nature, especially when you got a good reason to rant!<BR/><BR/>Like Biz, I am curious, what where you fined for?Linda Jones Malonsonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08717614683200565056noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-33436317.post-2882302984073936042008-02-07T21:41:00.000-05:002008-02-07T21:41:00.000-05:00Cliff...it's my pleasure to respond to this post. ...Cliff...it's my pleasure to respond to this post. Our house was broken into last year about a year ago from now. I came home at 3:30 and found the house just a mess. Stuff was all over the place. The kitchen was a mess. My office was ransacked as well as several other rooms. Nothing major was taken. <BR/><BR/>Anway, I called 9-1-1 at 3:40. A cop didn't show up until 7:30! In between then, I called the non-emergency number and asked, "where are they?!" They told me that we can't touch anything until the cops arrive. When the cop arrived, he checked out the damage, took a statement, and told us that a detective needs to come out and dust for prints. He also said the detective would call before he came over. The detective called at 11:45 that night!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Yes, that's right...a startling 8 HOURS after my original 9-1-1 call. He dusted for prints and couldn't find any. <BR/><BR/>That was that. <BR/><BR/>I fired off a letter to Mayor Jackson and left several messages with my councilman, Jay Westbrook. Jay's secretary called the next day to tell me that she would get back to me and try to find out why it took so long to respond. One of Mayor Jackson's aides sent me a letter apologizing for what happened and attached Jackson's plan for improving Cleveland's neighborhoods. What a joke. <BR/><BR/>Cliff, what were you cited for?
