I think that we saw this before, but never miss the opportunity to tell the what you think.

THe meetings at the library were suppose to address the residents concerns and be reported to the muncipality from this outside group.
At the july meeting, people were complaining about the codes not being enforced and how to get more businesses, people and the school district issues regarding taxes and the section 8 housing being allowed in Penn Hills. Not sure where they are and what the issues were, but if you rent your house to someone, who's responsible for the upkeep of the yards and grounds? The tenent or the landlord?

My problem house on my street finally cleaned up the yard and cut the grass , today. Looks really nice, but wonder how long it will stay that way. We all have responsibilites to the property we own and you are expected to keep it clean and presentable. Old timers taught me that on when I moved here.

The Mayor need to answer his emails and get the ball rolling FOR this community or leave the office. You are not doing the job, you were elected to do, for those who voted for you.
It's not about politics, it about doing the RIGHT thing for this community, they did elected each of you into office.
Stop playing the political games and make the right choices for this community, instead of playing with our money and wasting it on salaries or increases in our taxes the make it impossible to pay, for some of our senior citizens and others.

You expect us to keep giving- but what have you- the muncipality done for us lately.

Now you know why I hate politics- they must have a degree in lying or become brain dead after they get into office. No wonder people choose not to vote- why bother, they're only our for themselves in the long run.
What a shame for those of us who truely care about Penn Hills future and care enough to make a website, to voice our problems and concerns. I thank you

Did anyone email any councilman of this website and if they are aware, what are they doing about our concerns.
Personally, I still waiting for a reply to my letter to our Mayor- about 4 weeks now.
Guess I shouldn't hold my breath.
I'll have to start asking or calling the muncipality everday to see when we're going to find out about the results of the meetings and what is going to be done.
I can honestly say these things- cause I didn't vote for any of these people now in their current positions. But you can bet, my vote will be counted in future elections concerning Penn Hills. I may only be one vote but that may just be enough to make a positive change for our town. New blood-New businesses.
Old blood- old politics----- see you later.
Time to take back our community, we deserve better and we pay enough to get the BEST for our money.
Sorry for the babbling- but I thought everyone was doing the jobs they were elected to do. Now, I find out that wasn't the case.

RR person,
so how do we get them in harrisburg to pay attention to what's going on here?
Is there any politicains who care about Penn Hills? or are we just peons to them?
I thought Senator DeLuca was for the people, but not so sure now. I remember him as a kid growing up, when my parents bowled at Cowboy's Lanes in East Liberty.
Oops showing my age.
To bad people change when they get into politics and feel they are better than us.
Maybe, there are a few good men left that care about communities like ours.

Anybody know who they might be?

Just a few thoughts to ponder.

This year for the first time in eons, Tony DeLuca will have someone running against him for his Harrisburg job.
Maybe that fact will make Tony start listening to the people again, especially if the opponent gets a large share of votes.
In my opinion Tony has done very little for Penn Hills. One would think that with his son as mayor that he would be dragging businesses into the community, if for no other reason than to make his kid look good.

Have you noticed how much political mail you have been getting from Tony DeLuca these days? Election time and he is sending mailings out at the rate of at least two a week. Free advertisement for his political campaign. Oops, it's not free, our tax dollars are paying for them.
