IRETON’S VENDETTA IS COSTING SALISBURY BIG TIME
Jim Ireton’s mantra and actions against local landlords has become a broken record and are costing the City and its taxpayers in both reputation and budget. Last week he bombed in appeals by landlords to the zoning board from decisions by the administration. The City attorney was involved in those cases, so that could be why there is a pending budget amendment to provide more funding for Mr. Wilber.
Ireton continues to refuse to meet with SAPOA to discuss and resolve issues by establishing a working relationship, while proclaiming that he is going to hang landlords like Stu Leer out to dry. It’s not just a broken record, but an absurd one as well.
The school system will soon be on summer break. We urge Mr. Ireton to spend his free time in addressing matters that he has dodged for the past year, which include appointing both a fire chief and a police chief, rather than trips to the beach. And he should meet with SAPOA representatives before school is out.

I want my vote back!
This letter was obviously written by a SAPOA member or close supporter.
SAPOA wants more concessions. So far, in the push and pull between SAPOA and whoever at the moment takes them on, ALL of the concessions come from the latter, not the former. Not so hard to believe when you look at who's been "standing up for the city against them": Dunn, Cathcart, Comegys, Smith, Shields, Tilghman, Wilber.
It's been a stacked deck for years and years. Undoing the bad that's been done while the few laugh all the way to the bank on the backs of those who lost out (tenants, neighbors, neighborhoods, the city itself) is going to take time, if it can be done at all.
In a meeting with Mayor Jim regarding a new annexation request, Ireton said he didn't want any new residential developments in the city...only commercial projects. Wow, he is a bigger fool than everyone thought. How is he going to pay for the Tilghman screw up with no new housing?
Ireton's time as a public school teacher in Wicomico may be running out.
The Mayor is not going to take time to speak to anyone. Its his way or no way. He talks with promises and you get little productive actions other than that of a spoiled child. The Salisbury tumble continues.
behind you 100 percent mayor ireton! expose these slumlords for what they are. trash.
Ireton doesn't need to talk to SAPOA. SAPOA needs to clean up their crap and stop letting Salisbury look like a sh!t hole.
Why would anyone want to be annexed into the city? If your neighborhood has ample clean water and septic systems in working condition why would you want to be in the city? The only other reason why annexation is done is to raise money. City taxes.
Also those mounds which people are forced to put in for a septic system. A company comes cleans our the mound and drives it to the city filtration system, pump it in and then it runs overflow into the river. If we had the setic system it would take 100 years for it to reach the river/bay. Only in salisburywicomico county does our government think backwards.
Maybe the mayor whould post the most desireable rental house in salisbury. The best location of a rooming house. Make salisbury look appealing even if it isnt.
screw the donnie william's of salisbury! do any of them live in the city? or better yet would any of them live in some of their rental properties for more than a month? didn't think so!
I remember reading a few years back where a nyc judge made one of the local slumlords actually have to live in his slum! now thats justice!

We can only hope so. Does anyone know any board members to voice your concerns to?
2:41 What do his politics have to do with his job as a school teacher? What in the world would you be saying to a school board member that they would care about.
Hands down when it comes to hanging someone out to dry I would vote on Stu Leer any day. You cant put all landlords in the same pot. Its like one bad apple spoils the whole bushchel.
Didn't Jim get arrested the last time he was at the beach?
Are we now just realizing we elected a anti-business, anti-growth idiot who opposes all growth and business that pays the tax bill. Let the people that own property and business's in this town vote in an election and not the temporary college students. We would not have Irton and this mess!
Written by a SAPOA hack, no doubt. Complete with the beachy keen sleaze n smear of the campaign and going after Ireton's livelihood.
SAPOA thinks it can just play "let's bury the hatchet" after all the years they've f****d this town?
This is a POS post by a POS.
And I'm not even an Ireton fan!
What happened to those Rome wasn't Built in a Day antics from Jim Beaus supporters? LMFAO
