Last picked in Dodgeball, gets his way

Well, no point and waiting as to what tonight's vote will be is there? The boy who had a temper tantrum to get his way has prevailed. 4% tax increase, along with your trash increase.  Way to start off 2026.  Everyone will suffer.  Goodbye once again to Hendricks.  You sold your soul to the devil and screwed the taxpayers of Allentown. 

A.I generated.

You are a typical selfish Allentown public servant.

This veto could make Tuerk go down as the most inept and worst mayor in the history of Allentown; and we have a Mayor in federal prison and one that started the financial decline with a pension gift to the police department.  Oh wait, didn't Hendricks benefit from that gift?

I mean let's be honest; this 4% isn't going to do shit for the budget.  The lawsuits alone this year will eat up the 4%.  

If they don't, then the police department will.  I'm hearing the Mayor has promised the police to get their DROP Pension that will eat up another $1million + a year.  Of course, the greedy firefighters will want a DROP for themselves. Then the rest of the city should piggy back using the Me Too clause so every city employee is eligible.

Just wait for this proposal by Mayor Tuerk.  It's coming in January, I'm hearing.  Also, the groundbreaking of the new police station should be starting soon.  The first year payments are 0 and deferred until the start of 2027.  That $40million bond is going to start.  Where is that money coming from? 2026 is going to expedite the bankruptcy process for the city of Allentown.   

Ms. Patel better setup a lemonade stand with CeCe outside City Hall to start increasing city revenue.

Oh here's a spoiler.  I am predicting Santo Napoli as the next Council President.  Be careful what you wish for Napoli. Remember in the hot seat you will be criticized the most.  Unless of course you always do the right thing.  I hope you do, so I can actually blog some positives things in 2026.
