Guest SPJ Posted April 16, 2008 Report Share Posted April 16, 2008 This "classic car" is less than a tenth-of-a-mile from Mayor Matt Ryan's home. In fact, it's on the same block, and just around the corner. It's been there for YEARS, quite literally, and one would have to assume that the mayor has, at some point, ventured toward Main Street, driving right past this "pile of Vega." Before anyone accuses me of "stalking the mayor," that's not the case at all. I took this photo while looking for blatant code issues in numerous neighborhoods throughout the city. It's no secret where the mayor lives ... and I couldn't care any less about his residence, or his personal business, so, no ... not at all stalking. However, I do find it ironic that for a mayor whose administration is taking such a zero-tolerance approach regarding the "junk vehicle" law currently on the housing code books, this is allowed to remain, over the entire length of this mayor's time in office, to date (and counting): http://s294.photobucket.com/albums/mm118/J...w¤t=Code373.jpg Meanwhile, this "code issue" is currently bottled up in the city court system: http://s294.photobucket.com/albums/mm118/J...t=VetteNew8.jpg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Guest Posted April 16, 2008 Report Share Posted April 16, 2008 Mayor Ryan is a mental defect. His hippie, tree hugger mentality has sent Binghamton into a nose dive. Blaming the past does no good. Matt Ryan has done NOTHING to improve the quality of life in the city. Unless of course you're gay, black, or a muslim. Then the city is at your feet. Crime is out of control, as are wandering gangs of "thugs", as they so want to be called. Jobs are scarce. But this idiot thinks he's doing a good job. The first time he raised the gay flag, Ryan should have been relieved of duty. Things are too far gone now. Only a heavy military presence could take back the streets. Five thousand of the US Army's finest could do the job in a weeks time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest SPJ Posted April 16, 2008 Report Share Posted April 16, 2008 Just curious ... what does any of that have to do with the "pile of Vega" a few yards from the mayor's front stoop? -SPJ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Guest Posted April 16, 2008 Report Share Posted April 16, 2008 . Blaming the past does no good. Matt Ryan has done NOTHING to improve the quality of life in the city. Read his Open Letter on the City's website. He doesn't blame the past. He blames GWB and Albany for all of the city's woes. He correctly lists the "bad news", some of the dire problems we face. Then goes on to just place blame on the White House because of Iraq. I didn't agree with us going into Iraq, and still think it was a monumental mistake. But to blame that for the deterioration of Bing.?????? Duh. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Guest Posted April 17, 2008 Report Share Posted April 17, 2008 The guy said Town instead of Village. Big deal. Binghamton is still called a city and it probably should be called a Village now. Village of the damned. @ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest SPJ Posted April 17, 2008 Report Share Posted April 17, 2008 Not sure what the question is. The "pile of Vega" is around the corner from the place where the mayor says he lives, on Grand Blvd. It's located next to Dr. Abraham Nichols' office. Is that not still the city? I was under the impression it is. -SPJ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Matt Ryan moved to the house on Grand Blvd just to run for office. But he really does live in Johnson City, not Maine as some people have said. So now he is back residing in Johnson City I am surprised Ed hasn't figure that out yet! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The one Mayor Ryan has for a residence in the City of Binghamton or the one he resides at in the Town of Johnson City? Its on record in the Broome County Clerks Office. You can find the residence on Town Line Rd in Johnson City. Explains why he is always going to the Johnson City grocery store instead of using the one that dominate in Binghamton. @ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest SPJ Posted April 19, 2008 Report Share Posted April 19, 2008 Update on the "Pile of Vega." According to Mr. Lane, owner of Lane's, the "Pile of Vega," which was owned by a former employee of his and plopped in the driveway of his property across the street from the business, was removed a couple days ago, at the recent urging of the city's code enforcement department. What good may come of the various photos of code issues citywide? The code department seems to be following at least a couple of them, and the situations are being rectified. I haven't been over near McArthur in the past couple weeks. Is the old "Pile of Mustang" still in the yard adjacent to Booth Field, up on bocks? Progress, folks ... progress. No doubt, we'll be told that this is the result of the mayor's plan. The reality? A whole lotta CYA. But in the end, we win. As long as the REAL problems are being taken care of, I'm happy to say so. Whatever works! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
