The request on page 28 was for the July 4 block party that I wrote about on July 4. See Special rules for special people. This request was made by our PIO's family member.
This is an example of the arrogance and self-importance that I wrote about in the previous blog post, Watch out, Lebo. You're starting to act like Greece. A friend sent this to me:
These folks have lost the definition of what it means to be a public servant. On Laura Pace Lilley’s Twitter page it states, ”I get paid to write.” What does she write for $32.00 per hour? Facebook, Twitter? Is [this] the best and most responsible use of taxpayer monies?I see that Timmy applied for a block party permit. I hope he was charged the $25 fee, like the rest of us must pay. Well, maybe not the one for Sleepy Hollow.

For some reason, this really burns me up! Nepotism is terribly destructive and it's a shame that some kids are learning that it's OK to use connections in this way.
The no block party list is a sham though -- multiple streets listed as collectors are actually residential streets according to Mt Lebanon's own classification system. It's just a list designed to discourage block parties. The collaborators behind the list are the problem along with the commissioners who have done nothing to remedy the situation despite their knowledge of the situation. Likewise, there should be no privilege in Mt Lebanon that is dependent upon one commissioner's approval -- which is currently the case for block parties. Streets on that list need to be approved by their commissioner to have a block party.
