Yes, he is really dumb.
Yes, he thinks that ignorance is bliss.
The good residents never venture out
Bellaire residents are thought to live in utopia.
He shows no common sense because he has none.

Comment on New Solid Waste Changes to Take Effect March 1 by robert riquelmy

The city cuts service and increases costs. Why? To generate money that can then be given away to memorialize a former resident. If her family wants a memorial they should pay for it, not us.

Are you really that dumb? Do you actually think it does Bellaire residents a serivce by keeping them uninformed?

Every news service in Houston (Chronicle, Ch. 11, Ch. 13, etc. ,etc.) covered this same robbery as a “Bellaire robbery.” Do you honestly think Bellaire residents never venture outside the city limits? None of them do business at this bank? Never go to Meyerland?

Any police officer will tell you the best way to avoid becoming a victim is to be informed an aware. Is there an exception for Bellaire residents?

Your comment, Mr. Parker, is ridculous. And it takes the smallest of mentalities to shoot the messenger.

You’re a council member; why not show some good common sense for a change?

Instantnews – Once again you have reported a crime as being in Bellaire when the location of the crime is not in Bellaire. You did this just two weeks ago when reporting on the 82yr old Westbury woman that was beat. Please stop alarming Bellaire residents by continually misinforming them that crimes occurring outside Bellaire are of Bellaire residences and businesses.

Councilman, City of Bellaire

It is sad that our new mayor wants to cultivate the image of Bellaire as a good place to live rather than making it so.

I’m glad that someone other than herself will praise her. Quite graceless.

The city’s priorities are public safety no, parks yes.

When will there be a town hall meeting about all of this? It’s getting ridiculous! We moved into this area for the safety and rapid police response. Hoping we made the right decision.

As a Bellaire resident is it possible to get a little more clarity on these attempts. Back door, front door, male , female, black, white, hispanic, lingering cars seen in the neighborhood. Some sort of description. If this was a game of clue we would all lose and be lost.

Comment on Bellaire Rotary Teams with YMCA to Bring Christmas to Refugee Families by Corbett Parker

Bellaire Rotary is such a valuable asset in our community and other communities. They have done so much and continue to profoundly impact those that need it most through serving above themselves.

Comment on Outgoing Mayor Cindy Siegel Being Considered for METRO Board by robert riquelmy

She is an opponent of mass transit (even of sidewalks) who has spent tens of thousands on studies in anticipation of a rail station. Her vote is already committed, do not bother with the facts. Nothing more need be said, absent further provocation.

She is an opponent of mass transit (even an opponent of sidewalks) who has spent tens of thousands on planning for a rail station that may never otherwise appear. Her vote is already committed, do not bother with the facts. We could persist, but only upon further provocation.

The 14 small multi-cities will be well served if Mayor Siegel is indeed appointed to METRO Board on their behalf.

Comment on Bellaire sets 4-bag limit set for trash by Councilman Jim Avioli, Sr.

Councilman Jim Avioli, Sr. — Wed, 14 Dec 2011 19:46:34 +0000

The article as it appears omits an important fact. The main reason I voted against the changes was that effective 3/1/12, the curbside opt-out provision for senior citizens (65 and older) and disabled citizens will be eliminated.
Effective 3/1/12 all citizens whether or not they utilize curbside recycling will be billed by the city for that service. In essence the new provision is an increase in fees for those unable or unwilling to participate in curbside recycling.
Please include my comment in future articles.
