Say It Like It Is #1-Seriously, Langert Should Resign, Now

2/24/2013

Picture
In Langert's last appearance on WOBM radio, he admitted to being a partner in a building project in the Chestnut area of Lakewood.

This project had gone through numerous approvals and had variances that upset the local homeowners. Langert said that he was always open about the project, but nobody can recall Langert ever mentioning publicly that he was involved in the controversial project. He also never filed on any of his income statements that he is a partner in any developments. 

Most upsetting is that he never mentioned to anyone on the zoning board when he was advocating for approvals of zoning changes, that he was a partner. He never told the public about his insistence of putting his business partners and good friends in positions such as township manager or zoning board members for his benefit. 

Steve, seriously, we don't have time for all your little games. This town needs help and doesn't need people like you standing in the way while trying to profit from your position. The only reason you are on that committee is because you have enough dirt on other committeemen to keep you on there. 

This has been #1 in our all new- Say it like it is series.

Is HH trying to distract us from something? Why keep bringing up this same old canard when it has been proven again and again that your accusations are false? Will someone now get clued in that your ranting is meant to distract from your angry mix of liberal and racist positions? ICE jewelry? really! is that a pun intended to remind us of your valiant attempt to rid Lakewood of the Mexican population? Or did you get wind of the multiple toy stores coming to compete and decide you needed to vent at the target of your man-obsession again?
Whatever it is, please please please. Enough already. Either propose or quit. This romcom is dead.

Is it true mr hershkowitz you are planning to run for senate? If so you are advised to research sound political strategy. After doing so you will have learned that no more than 42% of your campaign should be negative and accusatory in nature. In addittion you will realize the adverse public reaction to beating a dead horse. Try coming up with some positive platforms how you will lower taxes and increase services. And if there is any truth to the claim that you profited by selling land to the township you need to publicly expose those facts to minimize the damage

Whoever you are, you are obviously a jealous little child that suckles from all the corrupt people you try to defend. What am I, liberal or racist ? You should decide before you sadly attempt to discredit me for my desire to make our town a better place to live. Other toy stores? I do my thing. Other toy stores, as if there are any others that matter, are not my concern. You stay anonymous and continue to defend corrupt people like Steve Langert until he stabs you in the back like he has so many before you.

HH it is time to seriously stop. You are non -stop obsessed with Langert and you have nutralized yourself to a point that even if you catch Langert doing domething wrong nobody will listen as you have made a complete boffooon out of yourself. It is a shame that you had such potential but sent yourself into the gutter. you should of had someone advise you in the public arena. What a shame.

Very well said. But just because you say that I am obsessed with Langert or Singer or Hitler does not make it so. I actually try to get the job done in spite of these buffoons( thanks for the word). Langert is the next generation to keep the legacy of stealing from the fine people of our town to keep a political machine going that keeps on taking. Steve committed blatant corruption. He manipulated the zoning board to approve his plans. I m not a public official yet I am totally transparent about all my projects and intentions. Langert has secretly profited from every agenda he promoted. And has worked very hard to make sure i have a hard time accomplishing anything. As for the parking lot property. Once again he twists the truth to the complete opposite. I gave away a property assessed for taxes for 470 thousand dollars for 280 thousand dollars. Steve had hoped that I would refuse to sell at that ridiculously low price that he made sure I was offered. When I agreed to sell for so little, for the good of the parking plan, he insisted on trying other ways to destroy the parking plans. I gave the township a gift and Langert and Co. Try to make that into a corrupt act? Mr langert and friends, your grip on the reins of this town is about to end. And I am not obsessed with him. I actually feel bad for him, and if he resigns we will all be better off.

No "Neumann" the opposite would be the truth. Langert worked with an "assessor" to offer me the least possible amount hoping I would refuse to sell. Sound familiar? He did the same thing when he cut the EMS salaries by thirty percent hoping they would quit. It is called bluffing. It is done in poker. And if there is one thing Steve knows it is poker. But how to improve the town? Not so much. And the fact that I allow Langert's "friends " to comment shows that I have no fear of anything that his very few friends may write about me. There are numerous other websites dedicated to having Langert removed from the committee. I actually came late to the party. I only recently came to realize how much damage he has done to our town.

Most property is actually worth much less than what the assesed value is. That being said why not keep it simple. Why did you acquire that piece of property? Was it near your store? What WERE your intentions when you bought it? How much did you pay and how much did you sell it for?

Didn't Mr Langert save the taxpayers 900,000 a year by playing hardball with the ems? It is quite obvious that your agenda is self serving and blinds you to the point where you are able to twist the good someone accomplishes and present it as bad.

I am Hershel. Not jake. I have explained myself very clearly. The only wrong thing I am guilty of was allowing myself to be taken advantage of by the UEZ. If you want to know the truth ask anyone in the office. They will tell you I was totally up front about everything. Let me ask you. Would you sell a property for much less than it was worth to save your downtown? Don't try to say it because my businesses are there, because I made them there for that very same reason to begin with. The fact that I allow your lame accusations to be posted in the first place on my website proves that I have no problem defending my selfless actions. I can show you the purchase and sale price, the assessed values from the tax office and testimony from town employees.

Actually a deputy mayor should not be a builder period. There are too many conflicts of interest that would arise. That is why you will not find a mayor in any town that is a builder in that town. It is unheard of. And Steve Langert never declared publicly that he is a builder, and his project went through honing changes, and he is the liaison to the zoning board. He must resign or face the consequences, which will not be pretty.
