Almost each morning we wake up to hear news about Pedro Segarra's corrupt and incompetent administration. Today, it's a Courant's report of the Audit Commission findings: "HARTFORD STRUGGLES TO COLLECT HOUSING LOANS" as the headline reads. We're talking millions of dollars here. Many millions. Money the city needs badly. What does Segarra and Maribel say? No comment so far. What's Segarra going to say, the he's an idiot? The article ends with Bruce Rubenstein, member of the commission, quote: "Segarra has been aware of this situation for quiet some time... The buck stops with Segarra on this horrible audit."

Oh boy, that could help with the deficit. How neglecting. Nothing would happen, once again it would be ignored by our "leader". Probably this people had no clue the money was owed to the city. This all border line criminal and Mr. Deller should be fired, not only arrogant,self centered, ego bigger than Hartford, not liked by his subordinates but now incompetent to manage our resources.

It's exactly like the case with the Hartford21 failed supernarjet: Segarra gave Mr. & Mrs. Jones $400,000 or $450,000 as a loan and NEVER COLLECTED EVEN ONE DIME FROM THEM. Then Segarra has the nerve to give the property behind 95 Park St. to SAMA for $1 and SAMA sells it and benefiting itself THE FOLLOWING DAY for more than 1/2 millions dollars. That's the Segarra way, corruption and incompetence all the way.

I carry no brief for Segarra, but the casual regard by our bureaucrats for government expenditures of taxpayer money goes back decades. Why is the City involved in lending money to anyone? For that matter, why do we need a "housing division?" ---------- Brian C. Mathews, director of the Hartford Housing Division, said Wednesday that the city wasn't required to repay any of the money to HUD, and didn't.
"It is my understanding that no repayments to HUD were ever required," Mathews said. "Whenever the affordability period for a project has expired, HUD does not require repayment of HOME funds invested in that project."

Yo Pedro, did you hear that the Stone Field Sculpture on Gold St. was damaged earlier today. Here's Thomas Deller, your idiot-on-duty director of development, statement: "It was a mistake. We have to talk to the contractor to make sure this doesn't happen again". Deller, you talk to the contractor BEFORE he start working, you moron. When Hartford voters dump Pedro, you can start packing. Go back to Rhode Island, if anyone is stupid enough to offer you a job over there.
Hopefully someone besides Deller is paying attention to the Stadium, what's next they will build it facing the wrong direction?
