HISPANICS INVITED TO MEET 3 COUNCILmen. ON 10/26...
WOW....HOW YOU WORK TO INVITE THE HISPANICS ONLY ======== DISCRIMINATES AGAINST ALL ELSE....THIS IS INSENSITIVE TO THE PUBLIC AT LARGE. IT IS TARGET MARKETING WITHOUT INVITING THE REST OF THE CITIZENS OF THE COMMUNITY. YOU HAVE NOT EVEN LEARNED HOW TO COMMUNICATE WITH THE ENGLISH SPEAKING CITIZENS APPROPRIATELY TO DATE... AND NOW-WHILE YOU "tell the english speaking citizens" about the services----you post another item that only invites the hispanics so that the reps can learn about communicating with the people????? ARE YOU KIDDING ME???? I AM INSULTED...and then you will have ZONE, WESTBROOK, and YOURSELF AT THE HELM profoundly touching the most vulnerable citizens in our community with your objectives.........woooooooooooohhhhhhhhh horseeeeeeeeey!
FOR THOSE THAT CANNOT READ SPANISH.....3 COUNCILMAN INVITE HISPANICS TO EXPLORE WAYS TO COMMUNICATE & GET HISPANIC INVOLVEMENT....NICE TRY...BUT WHAT ABOUT WORKING WITH THE REST OF THE PEOPLE---YOU KNOW, OF ALL DEMOGRAPHICS????? YOU ALL ARE OUTRAGEOUS!!!!
ATTENCION HISPANICOS... ESTOS POLITICOS TIENEN INTERESTES PROPIOS... LOS DIAS SON CONTADO......NO PIENSAN DE TODO EL MUNDO....SOLO DE SUS MISMOS!
[NOTE - See attached for English and Spanish text]
Como es sabido, la organización de Stcokyards Redevelopment suspendió sus operaciones a principios de este año. Los servicios de desarrollo comunitario para esas vecindades son ofrecidos actualmente por tres organizaciones: la oficina de de Stockyard, Clark-Fulton & Brooklyn Centre Community Development (SCFDO) que es satélite de Detroit Shoreway Community Development Organization (DSCDO), y Tremont West Development Corporation y Ohio City Near West Development Corporation. Además de los cambios en la entrega de servicios, estamos apoyando una estrategia para que las voces de la comunidad sean oídas, ahora y en el futuro, por concejales y representantes de DSCDO y SCFBC.
Meetings...ad nauseum... Hispanic buy-in
Dianna--I attended the last meeting...Councilman Cummins is trying to get buy-in, but frankly the organizers...should know that putting a flyer out in Spanish and English is not going to draw residents who speak Spanish.
Frankly, residents are sick of meetings and if I may speak for the more recent immigrants who speak Spanish...these folks don't have time for a meeting, either.

Purpose of the postings
none;mso-layout-grid-align:none;text-autospace:none">The intentions of posting this info were to inform folks of the up-coming meeting, services and staff. Sammy Catania is listed as the Commercial Manager for the Ward 14 portion of Tremont and for W. 25th Street. My office is also working with the City, NPI, the other Councilman and other Development Corporations that are responsible collectively for the entire W. 25th street corridor.
Brian Cummins
I appreciate your postings to realneo informing the community about your efforts, upcoming projects and events.
I also respect your decision to change your political status to Green. My understanding of the Green Party is that the principals of Green Politics include social justice and nonviolence.
Sammy Catania's violent behavior towards Guy Black - a disabled senior citizen - should cause major concern to a councilman that is promoting social justice and nonviolence. Having Sammy Catania work in your ward should be against your own principles.
There are FOUR known victims to Sammy Catania's explosive behavior. I consider Sammy Catania's violent behavior a severe threat to the community- including YOUR CONSTITUENTS- Hispanic or otherwise.
Sammy Catania's violent behavior towards Guy Black and others is unexcusable and unacceptable. Catania is unworthy of receiving a paycheck from taxpayers.
As far as this part of your comment, " The incident involving Sammy Catania that is in the courts is very unfortunate. I've expressed my concerns to the Director of TWDC. This does not detract from the services that are contracted for under the City's authority and ultimately have to be met by TWDC. There is lots of information posted on this site regarding this issue and it is unfortunate that it has to permeate a posting of information about our broader efforts which I believe in large are proving to be very productive and beneficial"
I personally believe that all potential victims of Sammy Catania must be warned, and I WILL continue to warn them. When Sammy Catania goes off again this will create a huge liability for yourself and the City of Cleveland.
I suggest you spend 8 minutes and 41 seconds reviewing this video.
And take a good look at all of these photos, especially the second top photo:
As a member of the Green Party - which promotes social justice and nonviolence- this should OUTRAGE you like it does me.
Practice what you preach.
Exactly....well put
I second that.

I have repeated this many times: council representatives need to legislate, and not be involved in the local/community development corporations. There must be a separation of "powers" of the elected representative, and the board of trustees that the director of the CDC report to. This means that a councilman should not be able to dictate to a CDC who they hire or fire, or what activities the CDC staff carry out.
