We try to zero in on the absentee landlords and make their life hell. We know who the housing inspector is and keep his mailbox full of violations. We will force them to sell and we'll rehab. Historic preservations have their value. We also can get people pumped about community and making a difference. We have great neighbors here. Great neighbors with great friends that love to know what's going on down here. They want to hear good news. <BR/><BR/>Check out <A HREF="http://toasttodayton.blogspot.com/" REL="nofollow">toasttodayton.com</A>.<BR/><BR/>Cheers, Jeff.kevinhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02821408086847067797noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7572205562498024454.post-55800808545214704122008-04-09T23:35:00.000-04:002008-04-09T23:35:00.000-04:00Jeffrey, I know what you mean about this consuming...Jeffrey, I know what you mean about this consuming all your time. But if the passion is there please feel free to continue, I truley enjoy your nearly daily (and sometimes 2 a day) posts, it keeps us thinking. I feature a web site each week in my Totally Trotwood email news and Daytonology is getting the nod this Friday. I some of my 1,500 readers will come check this site out.Adminhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02309205748663075042noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7572205562498024454.post-29395359482078467392008-04-09T22:00:00.000-04:002008-04-09T22:00:00.000-04:00anonymous - Well said and it would be wonderful if...anonymous - Well said and it would be wonderful if the major news outlets challenged Daytonians to know this history.<BR/><BR/>I wonder if we could arrange to give away groups of homes to non profit organizations or groups that could rehab a whole community. It would be great to have some regulated yet free form rehabilitation with some degree of ethnic or family compound. Why tear them all down, maybe tear down some and re arrange the zoning to allow alternative use.Greg Hunterhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17397460620900925314noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7572205562498024454.post-19265733795638723742008-04-09T20:54:00.000-04:002008-04-09T20:54:00.000-04:00There is more good Dayton-oriented, local issue co...There is more good Dayton-oriented, local issue content in a week on this blog than there is in a year of the Dayton Daily News.
