Imagine that, the city has all kinds of money to chase people around for pouring cement on their own property or not mowing your lawn, but when it comes to investigating felons running daycares, the kitty is dry. Oh and then there is the secrets

This is one of the better stories the Gargoyle Leader has covered in a long time. The facts are appalling. It’s one thing to allow felons to run daycares, it’s another thing to keep it a secret from the public. And the city’s excuse ‘Not enough money to police the daycares.’ Give me a break. If we can drop millions for a Jr. Football field ‘FOR THE KIDS’ we can spend a little extra policing daycares ‘FOR THE KIDS’. Gawd, I am glad I don’t have children.

Any complaints against Bresson’s day care provider are closed by city policy. Other parents, observers and some providers are asking for increased regulation and transparency of the more than 420 city-registered day cares.

    That is for darn sure. It seems like the city doesn’t know what necessities are and what things are unnecessary.

    Like I said above, I don’t have kids and really don’t care two shits, but for people who have kids and are looking for daycare, I think it is extremely troubling that you can’t go to city hall and check a complaint list.

    At some point, they will have to realize that ‘Home Rule’ doesn’t work. They can fine $600 but have no way to collect. They can trespass and steal trash from someone’s yard but not be awarded recovery. ‘Home Rule’ is all aspects of city government. If you get a traffic or parking ticket, don’t pay it. If there’s no appeal, it’s unconstitutional. If they’d recognize it takes a court (appeal, not judicial review) for enforcement, we’d notice them. Otherwise, it’s like looking beyond panhandlers when you walk down the street.
