* Channel 7 Covers the Morse Hell Hole

This story got some play today on the ABC Channel 7 - 4:30pm news.

The owner of the building Jay Johnson says his building is safe and will not get security. The building doesn't warrant such expense for his senior section 8 tenants.

Fran Tobin stuck it to Alderman Moore by dragging this in the media. Tobin made Alderman Moore look like a stooge by going over his head on this matter. Even after Alderman Moore begged Tobin not to do this stunt.

Now it looks like Aunt Jan is going to get involved. But that's O.K., Alderman Moore has his hands full booking gigs for the "Blue Bag Choir".

John on Farwell chimed in and said.......> Waiting to get a e-mail from oneil proclaiming caps and the ald on top of the matter.

Wait no further John on Farwell here's a word from the Alderman's puppet.

To Fran, and members of the Morse Senior Apartments Tenant Association:

I encourage you and your members to regularly attend CAPS Beat 2431 meetings, which are held monthly in the building where you live (1530 W. Morse, technically). I recall about 2-3 years ago tenants used to attend regularly, but I really haven't seen them since then.

Meeting are usually on the third Monday on the month, but the next meeting is Monday, Jan. 9, due to the federal Martin Luther King Holiday falling on the third Monday of the month. Hope you can make it!

O'Neil is the CAPS Beat facilitator for beat 2431? That can't be right, can it? Because O'Neil is also a member of the Board of Directors of DevCorp North, and Chairman of DevCorp North's Publcity and Public Relations Committee, and DevCorp North was a vendor of services to beat 2431, provider of private security. Wouldn't that be a conflict of interests?

O'Neil is the CAPS Beat facilitator for beat 2431, and beat 2431 has a severe problem with violent crime.

O'Neil is a member of the Board of Directors of DevCorp North, and Chairman of DevCorp North's Publcity and Public Relations Committee, and DevCorp North has a severe image problem.

Coincidence?
