Road (Repair) Rage

The Daily News follows the story of Arleta resident Carmella DeNicolo who has been trying to get her street paved since 1986, when former Councilman Ernani Benardi was her Councilman. Successive terms of Richard Alarcon, Alex Padilla and now Tony Cardenas have yet to help this old lady out.

DeNicolo has lived in her home since 1957, when the street was last paved. That's even before I was Mayor, when that swill Norris Poulson ruled the roost. As the Daily News points out, that's when Ike was President. In fact at least 4-5 of our current City Council members weren't even born yet and the rest of them were elementary school age or younger. Mayor Poopy himself was just barely out of his training pants!

There really is something wrong with a city that can't pave its own God damned streets for decades or provide police officers but has money for BS like airport payoffs and PR schemes.
