RECYCLE SCHEDULE
Last year several residents requested a 2017 recycle schedule and I reported that Kimble would include one with their next billing invoice. Apparently, they forgot so I have attached their schedule as a PDF to this newsletter. Please feel free to download and print the schedule.
QUESTIONS & ANSWERS
Q >>> – You’ve made my decision very easy. I will be unsubscribing from your email blast. Have you polled Summit County residents to know what their feelings are regarding the Muslim ban? You are obviously pro-Trump and in favor of his ignorant, xenophobic actions. Which, while it disgusts me as a human being, I respect that you have a right as an American to feel that way (although, the way things are going… You may lose that right fairly soon). You do not have the right, however, to email the Summit County Council and attempt to speak on the behalf of, and I quote, ‘what I believe to be the majority of Summit County residents.’ Also, make no mistake sir – the PEOPLE did not elect him as our president. The electoral college did. The popular vote quite clearly showed what the people wanted, and that is what gives me hope for this country.
A >>> – First of all, there is NO Muslim ban. It is a temporary delay in allowing immigration for all persons from seven countries that were originally chosen by the Obama administration for the same purpose! You need to read the actual executive order (*1) and quit watching CNN and MSNBC. And NO I did not take a poll on a non-existent issue. As for the rest of your diatribe it is obvious that you, and a few others, have no understanding of our Constitution and Bill of Rights. The FIRST AMENDMENT gives me the absolute right to state and send what I believe to anyone I choose and it’s anyone’s right to delete or erase anything that I send with which they disagree. You also need to educate yourself on the ELECTORAL COLLEGE, which has been, in its original form, a part of our Constitution since 1787.
In 1804, the 12TH AMENDMENT became law and is the origin of our current Electoral process. This process is how our Presidents have been elected all this time so please don’t give me your phony excuse that the people did not elect the President. NO PRESIDENT HAS EVER BEEN ELECTED BY THE POPULAR VOTE! And, since 1824, FIVE Presidents lost the popular vote but won the presidency through the Electoral vote.
I’m really tired of people moaning, whining, protesting and rioting about this due to an overabundance of ignorance of the law (*2) and the facts. Unfortunately, this year will see much more of this and that’s the real shame of it all. Not even three weeks in office and you want to ‘hang’ Trump for winning the election and fulfilling the promises that he made all throughout his successful campaign? The system worked and we have a leader that is fulfilling his promises and THAT is what gives ME hope for this country!
*2 – 8 U.S.C. § 1182(f)
Whenever the President finds that the entry of any aliens or of any class of aliens into the United States would be detrimental to the interests of the United States, he may by proclamation, and for such period as he shall deem necessary, suspend the entry of all aliens or any class of aliens as immigrants or nonimmigrants, or impose on the entry of aliens any restrictions he may deem to be appropriate.
Q >>> – I have read questions and comments from Northfield Center Residents regarding the Vandalism to the Fire Station. Why are you not at Macedonia’s Door asking them to pay for all the damage seeing as though Macedonia Fire was in Charge of the Building? You have to ask yourself – who benefited from the Vandalism?
A >>> – The Sheriff’s Office was unable to ascertain the time of the vandalism so it is uncertain who was “in charge” of the building when it occurred. Who benefitted from the vandalism? Your guess is as good as mine.
Q >>> – Thanks for looking into the recycle question. Can Kimble provide some of those CLEAR garbage bags please!
A >>> – Kimble already supplied the 64-gallon containers so providing the clear bags is your responsibility for your excess recyclables. The bags can be purchased at Lowe’s or Home Depot.
YOUR GENERAL COMMENTS
NOTE – If you would like your name to appear under your
Comments, please type the word “Signed” next to your name
I couldn’t agree more with you regarding your letter to Summit County Council! They are taking a page out of the “celebrities” handbook! Outrageous.
…………………………………………………….
Enough with your rightwing, Fox News induced commentary. Unsubscribe.
…………………………………………………….
Your letter to Summit County was appropriate. I do not agree with their thought on the immigration issue or speaking for me. What President Trump wants is to stop terrorism not the migration of people. If the protestors have other ideas I would be glad to hear them. For now I agree with President Trump and your letter to not speak for me.
…………………………………………………….
Disappointed in your response to the Summit County Council’s response to Trump’s response. (See how this could go on and on?) Anyhow, at least the Trump supporters finally have something they can rally around. (I don’t agree with it, but most everything else in the 2 weeks (only 2!) has been a train wreck). His lengthy focus and petty twitter arguments about inauguration crowd size, the election was rigged (3-5 million illegal votes!), his unqualified cabinet appointees, many Goldman Sachs executives and billionaire “swamp dwellers”, (that ALL in the first WEEK!) it’s hard for a person capable of a little introspection to get excited about those things. Fact, he lost the popular vote, by 2.7 million legal votes. Oh yes, he won – with help from the electoral college system that places more value on votes from on less populated states, among other problems. No way does he have a real mandate from the populace. Keep that in mind. That’s why there are so many responses and protests…he doesn’t represent the majority of America. Recent stealth gerrymandering has insured that.
…………………………………………………….
Outstanding, Paul! Thank you for speaking out against Summit County’s action. I have been yelling from the rooftops! Don’t you think a better use of their time would be to get Trump to eliminate EPA penalties on the county sewer issue so we can fix them faster? Refugee resettlement is tied to the county HUD plan. If you apply for CDBGs your community will have a very hard time avoiding participation in refugee resettlement.

Congratulations for trying to educate our Summit County Council. It is time that they become representatives for all of us and show some appreciation for our new president and administration. Thanks also for keeping the costs down in setting up the new fire and emergency situation with Macedonia. Also, from everything I have observed in my area, Kimble has been doing great with both trash and recycling pickups.
…………………………………………………….
I think we have the right to know who the person is that was involved In the painting of the plates
Even if they are only charged with a minor misdemeanor at least we will know who from our area
Was guilty
…………………………………………………….
We are very fortunate to have multi-talented trustees like you and Mr. Romanik who so freely give your time for the benefit of everyone. Thank you for everything that you do.

I saw the comment regarding Kimble leaving waste behind on the streets. I live on hazel and at the circle, end of the street, there’s a lot of waste left behind. On recycling days the recycling waste ends up in the ditches. Thank you for looking into this matter.
…………………………………………………….
Bi- weekly for rubbish is fine for me. As for me recyclables once a month. Single residents don’t have that much rubbish or recyclables, especially in the winter. My complaint is when some of the drivers pick up the bins, they just hard drop them and they fall over. They do not stop to put them upright. They are heavy for seniors. If you have arthritis you know what I am talking about. Man or woman. Thank you for your updates.
