Mayor O'Connell to Deliver "State of the City" Today!

Late yesterday, I received notice that Allentown Mayor Ray O'Connell will be delivering a "State of the City" Address today at noon at The Palace Center, 623 Hanover Avenue. This is being hosted by the Greater LV Chamber of Commerce. It's sold out too. It costs $39 for members and $69 for non-members.

Given a 27% tax hike, the state of the city should be pretty clear.

    Bernie,

    Those prices are now $49.53 and $87.63. You forgot to add 27%. Also, I plan to keep the audience waiting until the last 10 minutes before I commence my stem winder and make a bunch of shit up about how great things are going. Spoiler alert: does rearranging deck chairs on the Titanic come to mind? LOL. FYI and thanks, Bernie.

    Yours in model government,

    Ray

  4. Hershman, Hunsicker, Hahn and Ringer are his special guests today.
    To be fair, I was at city council the other night and Ken Heffentrager complained about paying to hear the address.O'Connell told him he will give it to the general public at no charge in council chambers in the near future.

  6. My street better be plowed this snowstorm or I’m charging the city. Every year we have to shovel the street by hand so the few that actually have jobs can go to work.

  7. We all blame O'Connell when the fact remains that these experts are still hiding and working for the indicted one. This fabricated farce to the demolition is to knock down capability and cognazant complicity of these the very types of catastrophes locals under the heading of commonwealth have been involved in covering up for years.
    As for the streets plowed is a joke engineered by those pissing there pants while boss Hogg vacations.

You own views are appreciated, especially if they differ from mine. But remember, commenting is a privilege, not a right. I will delete personal attacks or off-topic remarks at my discretion. Comments that play into the tribalism that has consumed this nation will be declined. So will comments alleging voter fraud unless backed up by concrete evidence. If you attack someone personally, I expect you to identify yourself. I will delete criticisms of my comment policy, vulgarities, cut-and-paste jobs from other sources and any suggestion of violence towards anyone. I will also delete sweeping generalizations about mainstream parties or ideologies, i.e. identity politics. My decisions on these matters are made on a case by case basis, and may be affected by my mood that day, my access to the blog at the time the comment was made or other information that isn’t readily apparent.
