I watched this whole incident happen. That parking lot was in very poor shape, city plow trucks were getting stuck trying to clear around snow covered cars littering the parking lot. The assistant principal called the city to have the cars towed and the city advised them to call Whiteys. It is the responsibility of the city to make sure that their land is safe for people to walk on and not fall. In order for the city to have the parking lots at the schools safe for our children, the lots have to be free of cars. Whiteys might "prey" on illegally parked cars, but without towing companies like that the city would be a mess of cars.

One question here, is not the school and school parking lot in sense owned by either the State or City tax payers, so in a situation like this...snow storm..the residents of the City have every right to park in the school lot since they pay the taxes, like you said he/she the principal must of lived out of town. No compassion !

I do not understand how Whiteys would just go and tow cars offf city property without a signed written contract. Mr Russo who at one point was the president of the TRPC ( Towing & Recovery Professionals of Connecticut ) should be very aware of these laws. I think the city should take action in this matter. the principal should be held responsiblefor her negligent handling of this matter as should be Whiteys and them being a city contracted towing company...

Kevin, Is there any talk by our Governor to evaluate SCHOOL PRINCIPLES along with teachers? If so, I think we can both agree where they should start! When is our local media gonna start jumping on this stuff instead of informing me what the Kardasians are up to this week inbetween minute by minute weather reports???

The majority of the HPS Principals do not live in Hartford. There is no compassion for taxpayers. So why would they care about cars in their schools lot being towed. Just like anyone who dose not live in Hartford but job here....they take the pay check an run. I feel immediate action should be taken against the Principal of Burns School. However, we know it will not. Politics will prevail.

+Anonymous 2:54am,

Whemn I was there only 4 people were present. Two Police Officers and the Principal and Vice Principal.By the process of elimination, I would imagine you are either the Principal or Vice Principal trying to justify your actions, I don't think it working and trying to say you did it in the name of the children is disgusting. Classes are out until next Tuesday, what was the rush or do you get a cut from the towing fees?

Mr. Brookman- When you post information/blog about it you should have all your facts. The principal of Burns DOES live in Hartford, very close to Burns LSA. She cares about the community and is VERY involved in all things frog hollow. She walks the neighborhood weekly to check on Burns families and the community. I am sure you have seen her in the neighborhood.

The parking ban ended when the cars were towed. True school does not re-open until Tuesday but the fundraiser that happened last night had to have a clean lot so the students of Burns, staff, and people of the community could park and walk without falling. The fundraiser was put together by the principal and many others at the school and in the community to raise money for the auditorium FOR the students!

A lot of people are commenting on your blog with nasty comments about the principal because they read what you wrote. You should make sure to have all your facts correctly stated before posting information.

It is hard to get facts when the Principal refused to talk and went and sat in here car and told me I had to get my answers from the Central Office. It was a ridiculous decision on her part to tow the cars and luckily the police Department had a little more common sense and corrected the situation. If the fundraiser was the following night, what was the rush to tow the cars at that time?.

And isn't it a little sad that people have to hold fundraisers to maintain schools? Maybe the money set aside for the spokesperson, who isn't available on weekends to comment, could be put into some school maintenance.

Out of a half a billion dollar budget they can't maintain a school. If they can't maintain it , they should close it. I doubt there are any issues with finding money for the Board offices at 960 Main, but then again, that is for the adults, not the kids

The statement stated that The MAJORITY of Hartford Public School Principals do not live in Hartford. Get the facts straight about HPS Principals. The MARJORITY of HPS Vice Principals do not live in Hartford either. Contact the Hartford Board of Education they have to reveal the payroll list.

A fundraiser for an auditorium. What a JOKE!!!! How could Burns Schools not have an auditorium? Does it have a gym, restrooms,library or a cafeteria?
Please, both Weaver High and Belizzi Middle Schools are almost empty. Where are the students? Are there any more small school enrollments that Hartford taxpayers are paying for?

Kev, could you investigate the comment in the first post? Inquiring minds are dying to know who at City Hall gave the word to call Whitey's, "The assistant principal called the city to have the cars towed and the city advised them to call Whiteys." Is that the bigger story maybe?

That racist asian principal knew that those vehicles belonged to residents of the neighborhood. I cant wait till she knocks on my door. She will blame someone else, that is what she does. Kevin. I am a resident. The mayor told us on the news to park in a school lot. Where do i park. Im sorry that i live in an apartment. But i cant afford 200 dollars each snow storm. Maybe i will bring the bill to that racist asian principal.

Burns school principal tows city resident vehicles when the mayor gave permission on the freaking news to park in a school lot during a snow emergency.

Burns school asian principal is another fool. She does not own city property or has the authority to have any cars towed . I wish she towed my car. That would not end well.

Mr Brookman ,

I see you still do what u want and post inaccurate facts and circumstances concerning the life and times of fine outstanding school administrators. These here folks have a tough job sculpting the young minds without your train of nonsense. Im sure you will not post this since you are now politically selective when it comes to the facts. I will continue to establish any barriers to your blog of hate and distrust

The problem with Hartford is that there is too many Chiefs and no Indians. Seems everyone wants to be in charge. It's a trickle down affect; that starts from the Mayor's office and spreads thru out the already dysfunctional city. No one cares about the Hartford residents. It is all about power, control and money.
