All the publicity on this shiny glass toilet station for it not to be built. If this would be true, what is the city going to do with the 3 to 4 million dollars a year they just saved? Could they be gearing up to give the cops a fabulous contract? That would certainly piss the tax payers off. Or maybe taking on another infinite debt like the DROP pension. Remember when Santo Napoli spoke on it saying the city was not in a position to go through with it? Wonder if he changed his mind? Better hope he didn't or he is going to get slammed on here
How financially in trouble is the city in if they scrap a project they gave away millions too?
Like I said, I could totally be wrong on this, but for a project that was supposed to have started months ago, I have yet to see anything started. Something isn't right.
Also
Those 13inch pythons are running out of room to get ink. Better not go on any more trips.
Reality
Speaking of it, wheres his travel expense report Frank?
Also
You can now get your weed on Lehigh St. too. Thanks to a new dispensary that opened. You know just what Allentown needs. I only say that because I'm sure not everyone leaves the parking lot without taking a hit. You know gotta calm your nerves before you drive. There is a dispensary on Emaus Ave about one mile from the new location. So plenty of it on the southside.
Also
Everyone knows about the two homicides that happened on Tuesday night. Where's the love? Where's Promise Neighborhoodz anti-gun violence people at? Council gives them hundreds of thousands of dollars but what is there to show for?
Also
Its getting colder. Soon we will hear about how city officials are going to push the homeless out of their camps or what they plan on doing to help them. Probably both. But we all know they will talk about doing something throughout the winter until it warms up, then forget about it.
Nothing proactive ever comes out of council, the mayors office or the police department. Always reactive.
Final point
I like to stay in county for what I talk about, but how bout that crazy Northampton county executive wanting a 43.5% property tax increase.
Does she have a pair of balls on her coming in that high. What is really the problem with these cities and counties? They spend, spend, spend because it isnt there money. WTF to they care. Every city and county should be audited quarterly or yearly but a firm in another state. Lets see where the money is really going. Its sickening. I mean the Federal gov and State taxes are becoming dismal compared to county, borough, school, and city tax. How is anyone supposed to buy weed on Lehigh St at the dispensary? Soon there wont be any homicides because no one will have enough money for a gun let alone the damn bullets. Just flip flop the two. Guns really cheap and bullets like $50 a round. You wont see gangstas running thru a clip. It would cost $600!!! Lol.
The spending is out of control.

The prior leadership in the Lehigh Valley has put the new county executives in Lehigh and Northampton counties in this predicament. They get in power and hold back tax increases and rely on depleting the general funds so they don’t lose their power and position. Then a new politician is elected (Dem or Rep) and they have no choice but to raise taxes.
I don’t blame either executive for this—I do blame them for putting wasteful social initiatives into their budgets. People should be losing jobs when there are tax increases. Allentown, Bethlehem, and Easton all have larger workforces than they actually require. Get rid of some high paying office jobs and redundancy of tasks.
I don't blame either executive”new” executive. I do blame McClure and Armstrong
Here's an idea... instead of hiring more people, try to get the existing workforce to actually perform their jobs up to their ability... if they have any... I never understood rewarding poor performance with a raise... shitcan the loafers...
You mean like Michaela Boyer and her 5 promotions since she’s started with the City four years ago because she is Matt Tuerk’s special girl? Asking for a friend
As an officer I can tell you Apd doesnt need a new station. Over half the guys are at the newly renovated 9th st. station. That 4th st. station was for the chief and his load of a command staff. Total waste. they all need to go.
I hear she is “Manager of Civic Innovations” now…… WTH does that even mean??
I truly believe that new police station won’t happen bc cost have skyrocketed and that effect alone the city can’t handle in its budget, meaning tax increases for years to come , plus mandatory trash increases every year. You know our trash services are much better than years past !!! NOT ! But still we must pay more !!! Soon our trash bill will be as much as taxes !!
Abe please do story on the city trash increases!!!
Where is Pawlowski when you need him?
It means her duties are same as they were before. Playing Candy Crush, sleeping on the mayor’s sofa, socializing with the heavy girl in HR with the eyebrows, and walk the city doing nothing. Duties never changed, just her salary. It must be really exhausting to be her.
Watch! Good things are currently brewing for a Pawlowski return to government. He will right ALL of Tuerkey’s 🦃 wrongs with a strong team.
ABE notice how all of the local zoo keepers think they are world economists since COVID and there looking glass infections overtook there little brains.
A sinking ship as per the tattoo.
Don't forget the really big news about Brooke's covid fraud. Local media pretending it isn't out there. No surprise about that but the word gets out without them.
Most political parasites and there underlings are just that soul suckers.
Now Matt Tuerk wants to be a seaman?
More from the See No Evil when Democrats do it local media. https://lehighvalleyramblings.blogspot.com/2026/10/congressional-candidate-bob-brooks.html
Bernie and Mike were the only ones to point out Pawlowski crimes.
Palumpas electronic signage sold down the creek is advertising Allentown is highering!)$? A hole nue administration is needed to discredit the brown hole law as a whole just one corrupt admin after another covering for crimeZ committed while making claimZ itZ for the populus!)$?
I was enlightened to see that the Community Development Director (making $140,000 annually) was in charge of a seminar to teach Allentown residents how to prepare for winter heating costs. This sounds like the type of essential city service that residents want, need and desire (as opposed to just using google or PPL/UGI websites). I sometimes wonder if the liberals in city hall assume that city residents are too dumb and/or too incapable to figuring out simple things on their own.
Ink tells a story, lots of ink tells lots of stories about a person. McPronouns is a canvas that spins a tale of borderline personality disorder. Is the ship sinking or heading for the iceberg? I’ve seen some epic ink. The epicness of his ink resides only in his mind. It’s as off putting as his lack of self awareness.
