No one had anything to show. Jeanette Eichenwald confirmed that City Council was given NOTHING to base their 5-1 vote on. There was no parking research to present. Nothing.<br /><br />Liars. Tony iannelli. Miriam Huertes. Sara Hailstone. Jeff Glazier. The Chamber of Commerce. Pawlowski and his administration. All lied to City Council and the Allentown Citizens.<br /><br />Does anyone really care?Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16689614615334224597noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-951782330457966647.post-75886739715187701462015-04-16T09:55:55.221-04:002015-04-16T09:55:55.221-04:00Unfortunately, your story is all-too-accurate.
