“I would have to agree with Mr. King on this issue. I am also a long time resident and I know for a fact that Hurst flip flopped on this and many other issues. The Village must take the school issue to the next level as this Mayor has done.
Anti-Anonymous response:
You did not elaborate on what Councilman Hurst has “flip flopped” on. The Mayor did not take this to the next level, as it was the lawyers as approved by the previous council and endorsed by the “Dream Team.” The “Dream Team” also approved the expenditure for the appeals court. So now we will see what happens. In certain areas, if one reads carefully, the Mayor seems to separate herself from this issue. Maybe we will see new “finger pointing” if this issue ultimately (I hope it succeeds) fails.

“It seems that any accomplishment that Mayor Anielski has made has come with major opposition from the Hurst Dream Team. The Dream Team of Hurst, Kolograf, Timm and Linville need to be removed from council and the Village government once and for all. Hurst and Kolograf are up this November, and we still have two more years of to get rid of the other two. Look at the Bedford Sun Banner article (Muckracker June 28, 2007) where the Northfield Mayor told the press that Hurst (The Dream Team) does not have the authority, or the pull to initiate a contract for fire protection with his community. The City of Bedford told Hurst and the Dream Team the same thing, that they do not have the authority. But when are they going to understand this? We all know that they do not care, they are just out for themselves. Every issue from going against the police and going against the building inspectors are the sinister work of Kolograf, Hurst and the rest of the Dream Team. It is obvious they do not like those who enforce the laws and this just makes me wonder. Is it that the police and building inspectors have more authority? I don't think the Dream Team likes authority at all. This community needs to wake up and smell the coffee. A little bit of coffee with those forgotten cookies might just do it!”

I understand the big accomplishment she discussed at here Valley Chamber “State of the Village” was the flood of 2006. OH! What did she talk about? My source notes she talked about clean-up, yet it has been a year since the Village Engineer issued his report and suggestions and nothing has been heard of her implementing any of the plans and ideas of the Village Engineer. “Where’s the meat?” You fail to list her other “major accomplishments”, are there any “major accomplishments”? I recall her catch word at the Townhall Meeting on the Flood of 2006 was “I’ll get back to you” and some are still waiting for her to get back to them.

You make a blanket statement without supporting what you say. You must be a big cog in the Mayor’s “little” rumor mill. What is it that the “Dream Team” is “out for”? By the way, my Village Hall source tells me that there has been no formal action on the fire contract, so the Mayor has implemented nothing. The only thing she did was bring “one” proposal to the table so why should Bedford and Maple Heights need to negotiate a contract as this would seem to be “I’ll take it strategy” by the Mayor. By the way of correct information which you are a little short on, this proposal and any others will be reviewed and voted on by council, so that do have the authority. Here again is another untruth spoken by the rumor mill.

Anti-Anonymous response:
Let’s see, against the police? A new police contract was negotiated. The police got raises of 3 percent in 2007, 2.5 percent in 2008 and 2.5 percent in 2009. This does not sound like anti-police! The police have the best and most updated equipment, rolling stock and communications equipment. They get an excellent uniform allowance, increased in the recent police agreement. They get a weapons qualification stipend, and this was increased 150 percent! That certainly does not sound like being anti-police!

Anti-Anonymous response:
I will answer this with a little story: A Arab Sheik from one of the United Arab Emirates had 26 wives and he needed an heir. None of the 26 wives could produce an heir for him. He was worried so he comes up with the bright idea of taking all the women to the doctor to be checked for what was wrong with them. What is the moral here? Mayor Anielski has had 2 full councils and 1 partial council and she has not gotten along with any of them, and therein lies the problem. This is a person that would take council to the psychologist to see what was wrong with them rather than taking an inward look at her own shortcomings.
Mayor Anielski steals ideas! She looks to blame others for perceived bad things. She takes all the credit for things perceived as good. She will not voice a position on anything controversial. Based on a former Village official she has attempted to get the Republican Party to endorse her as a state representative and they will not touch her. This would appear to cast her as an opportunist, looking for her next level of opportunity. Do you know she has two homes in Independence? I wonder if she has plans to move when she loses the election?
By the way I will tell you too that kingsright is very anonymous! You cannot find him in a local Walton Hills Director.
He is nowhere to be found:
On voter registration list-the name king does not appear!
He cannot be found in the Southeast phone book!
Maybe he is looking for the rock that he accuses a dissenter of living under.

July 14 Post on Councilman Kevin Hurst
On July 14 Kingsrightsite.blogspot.com wrote:
“Current Mayor Marlene Anielski has pulled petitions and has stated she is still deciding if she will run again.”
Anti-Kingsright comment:
The reason she needs to use more time to decide would be a sampling of the community. It is my strong suspicion that our current Mayor, Marlene B. Anielski is in trouble with the voters.
She has:
1. Wasted many thousands of dollars in extra legal cost in an attempt to establish contractual indemnification coverage in the Ohio Briquetting Fire. There is still one issue outstanding to settle according to our risk assessment expert, council hired last April. Mayor failed to have regular contract reviews exposing the Village of Walton Hills to great risk. “She is not watching the store”. (There are documents on this, I am told!)
2. She has no formal policy in combating risk exposure of the Village. (There is a document on this!)
3. She has failed to this point, after almost $400,000.00 to extricate Walton Hills from the Bedford City School District. Now her literature is noting that she will, “encourage and support a better alternative in our educational system for our children”. (This is a public record!)
4. Promises to be responsive, yet she has not implemented one program suggested by the village engineer with respect to STORMWATER-FLOOD MANAGEMENT, to counter the difficulties in the flood of June 2006. It is Councilman Hurst who brought to a vote the $100,000 council appropriation for Flood clean-up. (Please share with me what she has done?)
5. Touts the increase in revenues in 2007, but fails to tell voters that a big portion of this increase comes from buyouts by FORD Motor Company and a loss of jobs. (This is documented!)
6. Has had very limited success in economic development, the facts being that she has blown up any initiative of council on economic development help they have tried to provide. First notes in the newspaper we need a full time economic development person and then in literature notes it should be a part-time economic development person. (Check the record!)
7. Notes she will establish an EMS unit in our village and is simply echoing Councilman Hurst idea. What happened to the high-cost Fire Station she was touting in August in the one fire proposal received? (Source: campaign literature and documents noting whe Councilman Hurst started talking about this.)
8. She takes credit for the increased revenue from investment in fund balances and this is another area where she attempts to take credit for something done by Mr. Hurst. (The record speaks for itself!)

“Walton Hills is currently in a fight with Bedford Schools to leave the school district. The biased state mediator has ruled Walton Hills is not allowed to leave the district. The case is currently under appeal.”
Anti-Kingsright comment:
This initiative has been poorly managed. In fact, out of 18 votes to allow a school district transfer, there have been 15 “NO” votes. Only 3 members of the State of Ohio School Board voted for our position. There have been 13 board members, a hearing officer and a judge that have voted to not permit the school transfer. Yet, keeping the faith and under the leadership of Councilman Hurst the council voted to approve an additional appeal to the Appeals court. To date Walton Hills has spent over $400,000 to fight to leave! There are indications that the Mayor uses this issue politically at every opportunity. (See legislation on this from council meeting of September 2, 2007)

Anti-Kingsright comment:
Mr. Hurst has voted right along to continue the fight. Look at the record. With her comments about “support a better alternative” the Mayor seems to be adopting a fall back position. The Lawyer, Mr. Harbarger has also stated this word “alternative” and perhaps gave her this idea. (Again, see legislation, Resolution 2007-27, from September 2, 2007 and minutes of meeting. )

Anti-Kingsright comment:
This is an outright untruth! Mr. Hurst based on my listening to the program noted that he was not going to get into a debate or questions with respect to the school issue because there was on-going litigation.

(Totally false! Others have stood up and voted-the mayor has not cast one vote and tries to use this issue politically. See the record!)
Anti-Kingsright comment:
It was former Mayor Thellman that initially spearheaded this initiative. Anielski just happened to be the next mayor. You noting that “having tried to work within the system” also a basic untruth! Evidence seems to indicate that Mayor Anielski has never tried to work with the Bedford School Board. Did you know that all of her children attend parochial schools, as do many Village children do. She even sends her young toddler to parochial pre-school when there is a perfectly excellent, State of Ohio certified pre-school established more than 50 years across from Village Hall, where the Mayor has an office.
