WAWA ENLARGING PARKING LOT

$\"wawa$

GLOUCESTER CITY-The two vacant buildings in the 1300 unit block of Market Street next to the WaWa store are being demolished. The Wawa company owns the buildings and will be making the store\’s parking lot larger once the work is completed.

In 2006 Wawa representatives appeared before the City Planning $\"Wawa$ Board asking for permission to enlarge the local store. The application for the expansion was granted but the plans apparently were put on hold. The larger parking lot will be a welcome addition for customers as it is sometime difficult to find a place to park.

As for the demolition, one of the vacant buildings was the long time home of Gloucester Hardware owned by The Clements family. While the other building was used for a variety of different businesses. Some of which included Revelli\’s Grocery Store, Heisers Deli/Luncheonette, Adams Printing, and a video store to mention a few.

Daily Attacks in Iraq Drop Nearly 95 Percent

By John J. Kruzel
American Forces Press Service

WASHINGTON, Dec. 22, 2008 – The number of daily attacks in Iraq has dropped nearly 95 percent since last year, a U.S. military official said yesterday.

Iraq suffered an average of 180 attacks per day this time last year. But over the past week, the average number was 10, Army Brig. Gen. David G. Perkins, a Multinational Force Iraq spokesman, said.

\”This is a dramatic improvement of safety throughout the country,\” Perkins told reporters during a wide-ranging news conference in Baghdad yesterday.
He added that the country’s murder rates have dropped below levels that existed before the start of American operations in Iraq. In November, the ratio was 0.9 per 100,000 people.

Gloucester City Not Very Friendly to Rental Property Owners

Is Gloucester City Housing {GCH} picking on all businesses in the city or are they just targeting rental property owners? As a property owner on Market Street $\"073107_1327_LettersBell1\"$ it never ceases to amaze me the tricks GCH keeps pulling out of their little bag of tricks. First they raise registration from $50 to $150. per unit. This justifies them having an agent to inspect every rental unit in the city.

As a tenant, or even a homeowner, I\’m not to keen on having a stranger come into my place and snoop around. Do I have something to hide??? Nope. I do my best to keep up to code and keep my tenants comfortable.If the tenant has a problem they let me know. If I fail to resolve the issue, then Housing should be contacted.

I\’m really surprised and disappointed that no other landlord has spoken up. I know…assume position and take it like a man. What is the registration going to be next year…..$500. per????

It seems the local politicians have no checks and balances.

If Gloucester City wants to get rid of all the rental units , start with mine. Make me a fair offer and its yours.
