There is a legacy of theft in this family. Mom used to steal supplies and had for DECADES!!! Despite the existing legacy from prior generations, to maximize damage they likely told her why::To establish this legacy so they can justify pushing him into stealing, ensuring indifference from society’s elite who will be positioned to be involved in this Situation.
They offered him the temptation of maximizing the prices he commands by pushing people into buying at above market value. And I suspect his selling history will attest to this.
Think this will shut the tough guy up? Because I can go on about his schitzophrenia and how it makes him more likely to be a recidivist pediophile.
Thank you, all of you, for stealing my jewelry. I wash my hands of you all.

I think Waste Management as well as Coca Cola were fined big time for not have the diesel filters earlier this year…

I hope this is true… I live on Stafford and grew up on Logan all my life. They make so much noise not to mention damaging the street with their big O’l dump trucks, which by the way might be operating with out a required diesel devices which is required by law (http://www.acppubs.com/blog/1110000511/post/1650026765.html).. Yes they purchased new trucks recently but they are still using the old ones…I know cause I see them every single day of every week and so on…….

Vern Nelson,

The EPA had no problem bringing a suit against Home Depot (and others) who violate the law.

If a suit has been filed there should be a record of it. Has anyone done this?

Mike,

I understand what you mean but exaggerating your point into a felony accusation is the sort of thing that costs a cause credibility.

And yes, if “the Ware problem” was in Floral Park, it would take about 5 seconds to remedy because that neighborhood has financial resources to fight the city. Logan doesn’t have that kind of money. And it will have even less if Ware is moved and the RP decided throws up some lofts on their lot.

I think the big picture is to get rid of ALL the industry in the neighborhood and when that’s done, the city can go in for the kill. The residents can’t afford a prolonged legal battle – the industries operating there presently can. And they have.

And despite what you believe, I don’t think the city of SA will rally around Logan to save the neighborhood. If that were the case, you’d have already seen hue and cry from someplace other than Logan St. and a handful of supporters from elsewhere.

Time will tell.

Cook,

A CUP is a Conditional Use Permit – a type of industrial business permit. And I agree with you – I’m not altogether convinced it’s legally necessary in this case as Ware isn’t operating their business from the Logan location -they’re storing bins.

And I share your concern in regards to Logan and a RP “overlay.”

I rode my bicycle by the WARE properties yesterday.

A fenced off yard full of trucks, a little smelly, and this is in the HOT afternoon, I would have expected a bigger stink.

I am not sure what a CUP is and why this company would need one in a area that is zoned for Industrial use.

An RSP overlay, very interesting, but how is that going to help? If there is a problem, then it is the R/I-15 zoning and adding to that high density residential would just make it worse.

Who says the EPA hasn’t been notified?

Huh. Bush’s defanged, defunded EPA that would be. Hope they get around to checking out Ware some time this decade.

L Sisk,

The point is that the City has been dragging their feet on the Ware Disposal issue for years – largely due to Ware’s influence through campaign contributions.

If the Ware problem disrupted Floral Park you can bet that it would not have taken 5 years to come to a resolution – more like 5 minutes!

Update:

The City has removed the offending (to industrial business) 3 ton limit signs in Logan. Except for one which had previously existed at Santiago and Stafford.

The City moved amazingly fast on accomplishing this task. Complaints went to the City manager’s office on Friday, the signs were covered on Monday and they were removed on Tuesday.

Wow!! When the City feels the heat they can move pretty fast.

Kudos to Art Pedroza, the OJ Blog team and of course to the industrial businesses in Logan who made the City feel the heat.

With Renaissance Plan Deux just round the bend – I agree with “L Sisk” that Logan needs to be aware and aggressive in their dealings with the City. Residential and industrial in Logan should come together and present a united front to the City for the best outcome for all concerned.
