Community questions Media Boro Council's conduct, judgement and fairness

It seems a week doesn’t go by without someone writing to the editor to voice their displeasure with Media Borough’s conduct and judgement on Third Street Bridge.
The issue is even floating around on Craigslist.  I was sent this link yesterday.

  1. $5 for Media Borough on Craigslist. Way to high a price. I'll wait till all the lawsuits are settled.

  2. After the favoritism and conflicts of interest over the last few months, how can anyone believe this council can effectively lead? I can't! Especially with someone like the ethically challenged Ken Davidson on the board.

    Someone on council needs to step up(not Hall), address this issue and instill some confidence in this town. I shouldn't have to read everywhere I look that the council I voted for is being routinely questioned and portrayed as some big JOKE. It's obvious that's now the perception.

  3. Sadly, the perception is the reality.....

    The FROGS make policy for this borough, council just follows orders. Ask them for a statement.

    Roe and Rehoric are the only two who didn't sell out.

  4. There is not one council person currently serving that wants to be on coucnil or understands what a council person's duties are.
    Brian Hall quit after 4 yrs because he was too busy. He served 4 very indistinquished yrs, the lone highlight was voting to impose 300% tax increase through in 1 st yr in office.
    Paul Robinson served 12 yrs, got thrown office ticket then emerged for who knows what reason to terrize the town with his outrageous antics and comments.
    Eric Stein is a self centered know it all who thinks he is interesting. He is so arrogant he can't even bother to read his monthly council materials. No one botches more reports then him.
    Simpson is on council to serve herself and keep the 5 mile race under her control. Go ahead and ask her for financial reports for 5 Mile Race committee that she has run fo last 5 yrs. She stole the race from Recreation committee 5 yrs ago and runs it as slush fund for democratic committee in Media.
    Davidson is the biigest joke in Media. Thinks he knows whats best for Media after living here 5 yrs. He has lowered the perception of Media council to all time low by his behavior on 3rd St Bridge. The solicitor and borough manager know it is a conflict even if it does not fit definition because of financial concerns.
    At least Roe/Rehoric have the decency to do what they were elected to dowhich is to do what is best for te majoroity of residents. In fact, they are the only 2 who have consistently demonstrated committment to doing what they believe is best for Media.

    No leadership, no guideance

  7. This blog and the comments read like something on a conspiracy website. Please continue to prove me correct.

    1. Well there is a report that Kent was seen crouching on a grassy knoll by the proposed greenway. While Brian was looking for the definition of re-establish in the book Depository building..........

    2. Speaking of conspiracies, is Davidson surfing the web and looking at inappropriate things when he has his laptop running during council meetings?

    3. Agreed, Anon 5:04. Anyone who believes what Tedman posts on this blog, and thinks the commenters' obvious sloppiness and ignorance make what he posts true, is clearly not doing their own homework.

      The hatred and disgust is palpable...and one wonders, if so many of the people come here only to hate on Borough Council AND the Borough of Media, no one's making you live here!

    4. Maybe it has a lot to do with the growing concern that this council is busy pandering to the demands of a few while ignoring many others. Maybe this council doesn't like the fact that after all these years of regular nonsense, they're getting called out through a reporter discovering many things intended to be kept out of the public eye. Maybe this council can't stand seeing a forum where many residents who feel as if they're not being represented in 'Everyone's Hometown' are voicing their unhappiness. Kudos to Tedman for this site and keep it up!
