Mr Mayor shows his true coloors once again

Today Saturday 6-14 2014 i happened to se Mayor Joe and his wife walking thru a parking lot in the center of town after his walk or jog he takes with his wife. I politely approached the mayor and said how sorry i was to bother him on his day off but would like to speak to him he he had a monent.I asked him about the parking problem on Cosey Beach Ave on the weekends and my concern if there was an emergency that emergency trucks would not be able to get thru because of the cars parked on both sides of the road and how tight it is and also people having to back up if two cars try to travel down the road in different directions at the same time.HERE WAS HIS REPLY TO ME AND I QUOTE:WHO MADE YOU THE FCKN TRAFFIC COP ON COSEY BEACH AVE , I WAS ON THE FIRE DEPT FOR 25 SOMTHING YEARS ANS WE NEVER HAD A PROBLEM GETTING TRUCKS TRU THERE EVER,so i asked if he has been down there on the weekends to see the problem first hand REPLY:THATS WHAT I HAVE A POLICE CHIEF FOR AND COPS WHO MADE YOU THE TRAFFIC COP ON COSEY BEACH AVE. Well my fellow neighbors of this town thats the way our Mayor talks to residents who bring up a safty concern in thier neighborhood and this was done in front of his wife and other residents way to show concern Mr Mayor you just proved to me what a lot of people have been saying abot you ,ypur arrogant and think you are above the people who you work for or should i say are supposed to work for.
