FRED SOKOL'S

ROCKY RIVER CONTRACT WITH RESIDENTS! 


To: Rocky River City School District, Rocky River City Government, Rocky River Business Community and Fellow Residents,


 

     My complete plan to finally 'reform and limit' Rocky River City Government to 'benefit and empower' residents.   Is in ...

 

MY ELEVEN (11) POINT 'CONTRACT WITH RESIDENTS' (BELOW)

 

     Rocky River's 2007 Municipal Election will be about 'solid reform'.  Not 'keep the tradition'.  It is time to talk issues not pose on television!


 

  1. FIRST A PROMISE! I WILL NEVER LIE TO YOU - NOR WILL I BETRAY YOUR TRUST!  Why? (1) I believe in God and Country.  What I do for fellow citizens, I do for God.  (2) I want to serve the public.  Why?  (3) I believe in giving not taking.  (4) That is why I will never 'serve or benefit myself'.  (5) Those who 'wrongfully take' in public service do not belong in public service.  (6) WHAT DRIVES ME TO THESE BELIEFS? (CLICK ON AND READ MORE!)  

 

  1. LIMIT TAXES, SPENDING AND SURPLUS OF ROCKY RIVER CITY GOVERNMENT.  REFUND EXCESS 'SURPLUS MONEY' TO TAXPAYERS.  (1) An approximate ‘.6 billion dollars’ or ($610,263,582.99) has showed in the City of Rocky River’s ‘proposed spending budgets’ from 1990 through 2006. (2) Rocky River city government's ‘finance records’ have also shown that their ‘proposed budget’ rose 145% from $22,290,058 in 1990 to $54,706,230 in 2006.  I want Rocky River City Government 'limited' so they will spend less, and taxpayers keep more.  No devil in the details here!  You decide!  SEE MY 'ROCKY RIVER CHARTER PROPOSAL' THAT ONCE PASSED WILL PUT THE BRAKES ON ROCKY RIVER CITY GOVERNMENT SPENDING, SURPLUS AND TAXES.  - 'THE PETITION' TO PLACE THIS 'SAID CHARTER PROPOSAL' ON THE ROCKY RIVER BALLOT WILL BE CIRCULATED AMONGST ROCKY RIVER VOTERS SHORTLY.  WHOOOWAAAH!

  1. GUARANTEE JOBS FOR ROCKY RIVER RESIDENTSI want Rocky River City Government to require contractors who work on 'city government funded projects' within the city - to hire Rocky River residents for 'a minimum' of 20% of the jobs.  In which the contract is - or above $100,000.   SEE MY 'ROCKY RIVER CHARTER PROPOSAL' THAT ONCE PASSED WILL GUARANTEE JOBS FOR ROCKY RIVER RESIDENTS. (CLICK ON AND READ MORE!)

 

  1. CUT CITY INCOME TAX - FOR ALL ROCKY RIVER RESIDENTS AND BUSINESSES – In 2003 - $42,474,266.00 is Rocky River city government’s ‘Total Net Assets’.  $26,635,650.00 is Rocky River Waste Water Treatment Plant’s ‘Total Net Assets’.  $69,109,916.00 is the combined ‘Total Net Assets’.  I want Rocky River city government to return some of their 'Total Net Assets' back to the taxpayers in the form of tax cuts.  SEE MY 'ROCKY RIVER CHARTER PROPOSAL' THAT ONCE PASSED WILL FINALLY BRING 'TAX RELIEF' TO ROCKY RIVER RESIDENTS AND FOR THOSE WHO DO BUSINESS IN ROCKY RIVER'  (CLICK ON AND READ MORE!)

 

  1. PROTECT ROCKY RIVER CITIZEN’S RIGHTS - (1) City Hall once considered a ‘criminal trespass law’ for almost anyone walking on a Rocky River Private or Public Lawn (like a city park) - without permission.  (2) City Hall once considered restricting citizen speech at council meetings. (3) I uphold 'The United States Declaration of Independence' "that all men are created equal".  (4) I uphold 'The United States Constitution' "We The People".  (5) I uphold 'The United States Bill of Rights' in 'my non-attorney opinion' without The United States Bill of Rights that guarantees 'The Rights' of every American, The United States Constitution would not have been ratified.  (6) I uphold 'The State of Ohio Constitution and The State of Ohio Bill of Rights' in my 'non attorney opinion' is even more strict in it's effort to guarantee 'The Rights' of every Citizen of Ohio.  (7) I uphold 'The Charter of Rocky River'.   Are we a country of laws or special interests?  (8) Those in 'public service' who 'violate the rights' of fellow residents do not belong in and should resign from public service! You decide!  SEE MY 'ROCKY RIVER CHARTER PROPOSAL' THAT ONCE PASSED WILL REMIND AND PROTECT ROCKY RIVER RESIDENTS OF THEIR RIGHTS AS AMERICAN CITIZENS AND ROCKY RIVER CITIZENS.

  1. EQUIP ROCKY RIVER FIRE AND POLICEI want to see a new ‘around the clock’ fire substation in the Beach Cliff Area and Northern part of Rocky River.  I want all Rocky River Arson Fires solved.  I want to see Rocky River Police 'foot and bike patrols' in the neighborhoods.  I feel one police motorcycle is not enough.  Wouldn't you like more police and fire protection?  WOULDN'T YOU LIKE TO SEE FEET ON THE STREET?  (CLICK ON AND READ MORE!)

 

  1. 'INDEPENDENT AUDIT WITH CITIZEN OVERSIGHT' YEARLY - from 1990 to 2006 an approximate ‘.6 billion dollars’ or ($610,263,582.99) showed in the City of Rocky River’s ‘proposed (spending) budgets'.  I want to find out where every nickel and dime of the taxpayer’s actual money went (Who got what?) - from 1990 to the present - and for every year after.  I want all 'Rocky River City Government' financial information from 1990 through 2006 on the City of Rocky River's WebsiteWOULDN'T YOU LIKE TO KNOW 'WHO GOT WHAT' OF YOUR TAX MONEY? (CLICK ON AND READ MORE!)

 

  1. VOTER APPROVAL OF ZONING CHANGES IN ROCKY RIVER A major Rocky River Master Plan is now unfolding.  I want residents to know and decide ‘zoning changes’ that affect their home, neighborhood – and throughout Rocky River.  This doesn’t include variances SEE MY 'ROCKY RIVER CHARTER PROPOSAL' THAT ONCE PASSED WILL PUT THE VOTER IN CHARGE OF PROPOSED ZONING CHANGES THROUGHOUT ROCKY RIVER.  (CLICK ON AND READ MORE!)

 

  1. HELP NEEDY ROCKY RIVER RESIDENTS - WITH NEW 'COMPASSIONATE PROGRAMS' – There are many in need in Rocky River - yet afraid to ask for help.  We may know and want to help that someone.  Residents who are in need in my opinion are the weakest of the weak and need fellow residents with 'big shoulders' to lift them up.  I want to see all residents in need, helped. " ... SERVICE TO HUMANITY IS THE BEST WORK OF LIFE." (FROM JAYCEE CREED).  I WAS ONCE A LAKEWOOD, OHIO JAYCEE. (CLICK ON AND READ MORE!)

 

  1. ESTABLISH CITIZEN SAFETY AND HEALTH BOARD - (1) I want to find and remove - all safety and health hazards that threaten Rocky River residents.  (2) Do 'gas lines and electric lines' run together in Rocky River's sewer lines?  If so, does the law allow this?  (3.) Is there an 'old (not used) city dump' on Lake Road across from Bradstreet’s Landing since 1948?  If so, I want it removed!  (3.) PUT A 'NEW' ROCKY RIVER FIRE SUBSTATION - IN THE REMOVED WASTE SITE'S PLACE - FOR PROTECTION OF RESIDENTS.  (CLICK ON AND READ MORE!)

 

  1. REQUIRE (REGULAR) TOWN HALL MEETINGS IN WARD AND NEIGHBORHOODS I want to see citizens plan, decide and carry out our Rocky River future – not power elite!  WE ARE GOING TO GO BACK TO OUR 'ROOTS' AS AMERICANS ON THIS ISSUE! (CLICK ON AND READ MORE!)
