Clean up our streets : 5/4/2009
What bothers me most about these fines, is that a guy like me has posted many times that I would clean up this mess in the city. People are looking for work and I have a team ready to get this done. The home owners rather pay a small fine once a year in most cases rather then pay someone like me to handle it. Go figure!!!!

Property Violators : 5/4/2009
I am very proud of the work our city is doing with going after home owners that do no respect their homes or the homes in their neighborhoods. Keep up the good work!

Washington is still an embarassing dump. Social programs and unions have ruined the city
