East Cleveland is so broke bankruptcy won't help
Posted by TigerintheNO on 12/26/14 at 4:20 pm00
From the article
quote:
The city government's cellphone provider recently cut off service for nonpayment. It is getting two new salt trucks purchased with federal money but won't be able to fill them because of what it owes Morton Salt Inc., one of the city's fiscal overseers said.
quote:
Yost further wrote that the city's recovery plan is "unworkable." The letter said there is anecdotal evidence that doctors are refusing to treat city workers because medical bills have gone unpaid.
quote:
The city's financial woes have reached a point where the head of the fiscal commission doesn't think bankruptcy would even help. Sharon Hanrahan of the Ohio Office of Management and Budget said she's concerned the city won't have enough cash in the bank to make payroll for the first pay period of 2015.
quote:
The city has negative fund balances of about $5 million and more than $2 million in past-due bills.
quote:
The Cleveland suburb has been under a state-ordered fiscal emergency since 2012, which means a fiscal commission oversees the city's finances and works with officials to devise a recovery plan. East Cleveland has been there before. It was under a fiscal emergency from 1988 until 2006, the longest in state history.

There's the anecdotal evidence.

Wait till the atheists find out they open the meetings with Jesus and the Holy Spirit.

Their plan was to hire a company to install traffic cameras and use the money to fund the government, and stiff the camera company on the bill. They didn't even bother to hire an attorney
quote:
For lack of money, he wrote, East Cleveland's fire department doesn't have a working ladder truck, the city can no longer provide adequate street maintenance, all city cell phones have been shut off, and utility companies are threatening legal action for unpaid bills.
The city's existing financial recovery plan, Yost stated, has become "unworkable" because of declines in red-light camera revenue
quote:
A federal judge in Rhode Island has ruled that a cash-strapped Cleveland suburb must pay at least $638,000 after defaulting on a years-old bill owed to an insolvent traffic camera company that was based in Providence, R.I.
The total could reach $1 million if an attorney for the receiver overseeing the insolvency seeks interest and attorney fees.
The attorney said during a court hearing Wednesday in Rhode Island that the city never responded to attempts to settle the case.
The law director for East Cleveland said Wednesday the judge would not allow him to represent the city in the lawsuit.
Ronald Riley says East Cleveland couldn't afford to hire outside counsel and won't be able to pay the judgment.

Romney was shutout in 16 Cleveland precincts and one in East Cleveland; and in another 19 precincts in Cleveland, East Cleveland and Warrensville Heights, he received just one vote each.

After watching the video I posted earlier, I'm way more inclined to believe there was no voter fraud like Vegas Bengal always says. It really is that bad out there.

I was just wondering about the demographics of East Cleveland, thanks for confirming my hunch, it saves me a trip to Google.

And B4racist, IDGAF. The list of places where the black vote is dominant that aren't total shitholes is about as long as the list of RADFEMs who take it up the arse(from a man).

Don't want to have your faith challenged, don't be the first to drop the gauntlet.

Hopefully you clicked that link and watched the circus at which I was poking fun.

I did, it wasn't the most articulate prayer.

So the statement "look at the insecure Christian" is a challenge of someone's faith?? No, it's just a snarky way to make fun of someone

I'm probably the only person on this board who has ever been to East Cleveland. There are parts of that city that look like a war zone.
