To the person who asked the RTK fan a few question's ,my friends are way better thsn your friends nananana but seriously just stop biatchin one kurt like person is enugh
Obviously you can express your outrage on the borough website. There is a contact page. You can also email the borough on your own, or call there to talk to someone about your discomfort at the idea of an increased monetary support of your community.
Take a good look at your tax bills. The big one you get is for the schools. That is the school board, and if you don't like how they are spending your tax dollars - go to them.
The smaller tax bill you get - half of that money goes to the Borough, and the other half goes to the County.
To the angry people - tell us your price tag to the borough (remember, not the larger school tax bill, and half the smaller one). Is it $400? $600? $800?
Tell us honestly, is that the money where you are getting ripped off, embezzled from, and is mismanaged? Why does your rage lie there?
And someone please tell me the union jobs that have been handed out since "union thugs" took over. And don't forget long time m'villians - your families gave you the decent life you had growing up because they were part of the "union thugs" - steel mill workers and the jobs that spun off it. Why are you so bitter now?
Consider also things like the police department, health care and insurance. They are all necessities that increase each year as is the cost of fuel & other maintenance utilities and borough employee salaries.
When talking about unions, one of my personal favorites would have to be Mr. Farrell who comes to public comment at the borough meetings complaining about unions while he is benefiting from his union retirement.
When some ignorant person talks about "unions" in a bad light in Morrisville to suite their own needs I am always reminded that the borough workers are AFSME workers and the police belong to the FOP, both unions. Do they even realize they are also bashing a large percentage of the town in their attempt at whining over Dave Rivella.
Ex-mayor gets $20K she doesn't deserve and she's still looking for more?! Whenever anyone sees this person, it should be mandatory to give her a c@nt punt! What an a$$hole!
Morrisville settles with former mayor; battle continues

By GEMA MARIA DUARTE Staff writer
Morrisville has settled a civil lawsuit filed by former Mayor Rita Ledger. But the legal battle might not be over.
Two weeks after Ledger and the borough agreed to a settlement of $20,000, Ledger submitted a letter claiming that under borough code, as mayor she is entitled to legal counsel and the borough should pick up the bill.
She said that the borough code “authorizes the mayor to obtain outside legal counsel to perform necessary legal services as pertains to a legal dispute between the mayor and council,” reads the letter dated Dec. 30.
Ledger’s lawyer Martha Sperling did not have a comment Wednesday about the settlement. Additionally, she was unaware of Ledger’s Dec. 30 letter to Morrisville, she said.
The borough and Ledger settled Dec. 14, according to the settlement document signed by Ledger.
The borough’s new solicitor had not reviewed Ledger’s Dec. 30 letter.
Ledger’s legal action started when she filed the lawsuit in May in Bucks County Court against some members of the borough administration, council and police department.
She claimed that they wouldn’t give her access to borough records or the police department office and paperwork. She claimed sex discrimination and sought more than $100,000 in damages.
In the fall, the court ruled in Ledger’s favor. The court gave Ledger, the first borough female mayor, the right to obtain police department and borough records without having to submit a right-to-know request and pay 25 cents per page, as the public is required to do.
In addition, the order gave her access to the police department office and authority to sit in on borough council executive sessions and obtain copies of lawsuits and police schedules.
I would like to know how much of the $20 grand will go to her attorney. I hope all of it. At least that way she isn't getting any money out of her scam on the community.
There's so much politics and misinformation I don't know who to believe. Stay on Crack is generally a bunch of dolts, but you've got to be professional and above board to not give the dolts an opening where they would win a BS lawsuit. Even a stopped clock is right twice a day.
I sincerely hope Peppy's letter is sincere. Somehow it comes across as patronizing, but I think that may be tainted by the election rhetoric. Peppy, if you are sincere, and you can contribute in a meaningful way without increasing friction, it could go a long way toward undoing any negative perceptions generated by the way things went during the election race. Just sayin'.
Haven't seen it. Pepitone knowingly started a war of sorts in Morrisville with his campaign of lies and accusations. It showed who he is. He may have changed his approach, but he has not changed.
Until we start trying to find ways to work together, the acrimonious nature of politics and civic activity in this town will continue.
You can be part of the problem, or part of the solution, choice is yours.
Chemistry joke: If you're not part of the solution....You're the precipitate.
Maybe Peppy did some bad things, and maybe he didn't handle the election in a manner of which you approve, but there are few people that are really evil, and maybe just maybe he isn't one of them. I hope to see that he puts his money where his mouth is, and tries to work with everyone to make the town better. Hopefully he learned that alienating a large percentage of people is not a good way to go. This is a lesson we can all stand to learn.
I agree in working together. I don't just talk about it I put my actions behind it.
I read Pepitone's article. I didn't take it as an olive branch at all, just more of the same.
Pepitone has no idea what Rivella's political views are because he chose to bash Dave every chance he got about lie about him continually without even having a conversation with him.
I can see how some may think this is a new page for Pepitone. After all it wasn't you he campaigned against the way he did. It wasn't you Pepitone lied about. You weren't the target of his character assassination.
He could have contacted Rivella and talked with him about any part of this article, but chose to do submit an article publicly because he's grandstanding - again.
Rita gets her own circle of Hell for what she's done. I think Hellman and Burger, for all their misguided policies, decisions and actions, didn't seek to benefit personally from their positions (Well, except for the power they so obviously sought.)
Peppy seems to be cut from a different cloth, but he definitely shares the bully approach to problem solving. Must be some cop mentality. I don't think he'd be as bad as Hellman, (Outright Narcissist) nor as sneaky manipulative a Burgermeister. He would be a bull in a china shop though. Maybe it would have some good results for a little while, but that type of "leadership" has no staying power.
Morrisville man killed in one car crash near Sesame Place

MIDDLETOWN — A 24-year-old Morrisville man died Thursday night in a one-car accident near the Sesame Place theme park.
The accident occurred around 11:30 p.m. when a 2004 Chevy Monte Carlo driven by Parker Reed IV left North Buckstown Road and struck a tree, according to Middletown police. Reed was in the car alone. He was pronounced dead at the scene.
No other information was available.
Middletown police are investigating the accident and ask anyone who may have witnessed the crash to contact Officer Michael Stum at 215 750-3845, ext. 482.
Well some do need lights....but not where the IBEW is going to put them!!!!And some shoot lights, ask Bristol twp. weed & seed. Gee, we just might be able to ask Mayor Mack bout that. Just when I thought you bloggers were cleaning it up.....surprise I stop back, only to find some have stepped it up with the insanity....Someone hates reproduction to the extreme, maybe you'll pass on- disturbed and straight jacketed!
The Blogger program (which is a Google product) is experiencing technical difficulties related to compatibility with certain versions of Internet Explorer. It's messing up a lot of blogs that use Blogger, including this one.
Comments seem to work fine, but it's preventing me from making new posts.
I'm no computer guru, so I haven't been able to fix it. Then again, I haven't tried very hard.
I'm sort of losing interest in being primarily a spectator in an ongoing food fight. It might be time for someone else to take it over or start a new blog.
Hey, what happened??? No posts since Tuesday. Some may have gotten their tongues stuck on the Trenton Makes World Takes Bridge.. Someone better go check. Happy Throw Back Thursday, Everyone!
My name is Doctor McCoy, but people call me Bones I'm a crusty old curmudgeon and I've got a jones For a cynical saying or sarcastic quip... Let's face it - I'm not the nicest guy on the ship!
You said it. You mean to tell me grown trained adults who are supposed to be role models of discipline and restraint and preserving order go all lord of the flies in no time if they don't have proper babysitting and memos??? That's some scary a-- sh-- when your cops behave worse than alot of perps. Give us a list of the remaining cops who have kept their mouths shut done their jobs honorably and not sued anyone. It must be a very short list.
Not a surprise. Given the childish antics of the mayor and council, why should anyone expect the employees to be any better. I imagine you'll find lots of similar antics in other Borough run operations as well.
So a police force simply can't keep it together if they see elected civilians behaving badly or without adult supervision?? They've got no choice but to mimic the bad behavior? That doesn't say much about the police force.
Union? I knew something was going on heard rumblings isnt Eileens d.i.l an aide? They hate unions but theyre forming one? There goes the school might as well farmthem out now
why should they shut up if they know something id like tohear it so who is running this show and why are they doing this to the school and who is the person heading it
The union will not destroy the school. It will give the aides what is fair. They absolutely care about the children of Morrisville.The poster above is right; it is not an easy job. One has nothing to do with the other.
What do the aides want that they think is fair? If its more money then where will the district find the money. The paper said they have over a $700,000 deficit. Money has to come from somewhere.
In what way are the aides "taking g over the school"? Are they now replacing the Superintendent, Business Manager, Principals, etc and serving as the entire Administrative Team? Or are you using Jackassian Hyperbole because you're pissed they decided to organize as they have in many other districts?
Morrisville schools settle Head Start suit By GEMA MARIA DUARTE Staff writer | Posted: Tuesday, February 25, 2014 8:28 pm Morrisville School District has settled a more than $300,000 lawsuit with Bucks County Head Start for $50,000. Bucks County Head Start filed a $308,849 lawsuit against the school district in March 2012 in Bucks County Court. “The district makes no representation or warranties regarding any tax obligations arising out of the payment of the settlement funds,” and Head Start is OK with that, according to the settlement signed in late January and recently released to the newspaper. No further comment by officials was made. Head Start, a nonprofit group that provides comprehensive social services and early childhood education to needy families and children, had a 20-year lease contract with Morrisville School District for the use of the former Manor Park School building on Penn Avenue. That lease was slated to run from May 1, 1999, to Dec. 31, 2018. The district ended the lease on March 29, 2010, for unknown reasons, according to court papers. The lease agreement stated that if the school district terminated the lease before 2018, it had to pay Head Start the actual costs, minus depreciation, for any building improvements, according to the lawsuit. Additionally, Morrisville School District had to pay 40 percent of the amount Head Start has paid the district in rent. Head Start spent $20,438 for parking lot repairs, $23,358 for boiler gas conversion, another $162,925.60 for the roof replacement, and $55,029.43 for heating and air conditioning repairs and replacement, according to court papers. All those expenses totaled $261,751. Of that, Head Start argued that the district owed the agency $167,281.71. Head Start paid $353,952 to the district in rent since 1999; the agency asked that Morrisville School District pay 40 percent of that, which totals $141,580, according to the suit. Head Start demanded payment in a letter to the district dated March 29, 2011. The agency claimed the district had refused to fulfill its payment, according to court papers. In addition to the $308,849, Head Starts wanted the district to pay $15,000 in lawyer fees and court costs. When the suit was filed in 2012, a former school board made the decision to end the lease. The lawsuit included those former board members and some others who currently sit on the school board
now im figuring it out. aides unionizing. friend of board and one is related to ex council. I just watched last couple videos and only one aide is seen in a few shots around the room is she making deals with the board to get a good contract
yes it is the tax payers burden and that should not be the case to pay them more $ and they have summers off and benefits to boot while the school is going down hill and cant pay what they have now good luck finding another job when they school closes
EPILOGUE: This horrible nasty blog died, and no new ones of its ilk or worse sprung up. Truth and reason carried the days. Everyone engaged in no-hate civil discourse and transparent factual communications. Never a harsh word was spoken again. Pepitone ran for mayor again and won in a landslide, leading Morrisville into a new safe harmonious era of prosperity. No more s***bags with slime dripping from their teeth, s*** pit, child killing nazis, loudmouths, cranks, racists, zealots, never happy misery loves company sad sack meddling losers. No more know it alls, lies, put downs, stalking, car-keying, fear mongering, dirty tricks, deceit, shovel-ready photo-opping, bullying, self righteous, self congratulating, grandstanding, blame shifting, f*** this f*** that evil dysfunctionality. No more bulls***, hypocrisy, tax breaks, patronage, frivolous rtks, take my toys and go home, voted off the island, white van pseudo abductors, gotcha gotcha, conspiracy theories. No more pet project little napoleon wannabes trying to be big fish in a little pond power trippers. No more big splash leave with a whimper faux heroes, Trenton, bridge closing, Trenton, Trenton, smartest guy in the room, wrap yourself in God the flag and a lapel pin woe is me victim aggressors. More police than ever. Cleanest statues in history with the pictures to prove it. Everyone took deep long looks in the mirror, got over themselves, and got some perspective and self awareness of their own complicity in the former madness. Taxes and bills were paid, mental illnesses recognized, treated, and tamed. The old chief offenders faded away or died, and no new ones rose up to take their places. Everyone lived happily ever after.

Now, I puked.
People, we are stooping here. We can do better than this.
Why did pepto cross the street?,............to get away from the detectives investigating him for disability fraud.
Mr Administrator can we get a new Potluck please
But the BCCT told me my taxes were going up now. Where do I go to express my outrage?
It was discussed at the last council meeting.
Obviously you can express your outrage on the borough website. There is a contact page. You can also email the borough on your own, or call there to talk to someone about your discomfort at the idea of an increased monetary support of your community.
Someone's sarcasm meter appears to need calibration.
I recommend not paying anything and serially filing frivolous lawsuits of paranoid gibberish.
Take a good look at your tax bills. The big one you get is for the schools. That is the school board, and if you don't like how they are spending your tax dollars - go to them.
The smaller tax bill you get - half of that money goes to the Borough, and the other half goes to the County.

and thank you for pointing out the school tax bill, remember teachers are union members too.
I would like to know how much of the $20 grand will go to her attorney. I hope all of it. At least that way she isn't getting any money out of her scam on the community.
Anybody know the reasons why she didn't run for reelection as mayor?
She remembered it's more lucrative to file BS lawsuits?
There's so much politics and misinformation I don't know who to believe. Stay on Crack is generally a bunch of dolts, but you've got to be professional and above board to not give the dolts an opening where they would win a BS lawsuit. Even a stopped clock is right twice a day.
Is this blog dead via abandonment? Me thinks that must be the plan,.
The former mayor didn't "win". The borough settled the suit. Big difference.
Neither party admits to doing anything right.

the aides are going union beware their leader
Union? I knew something was going on heard rumblings isnt Eileens d.i.l an aide? They hate unions but theyre forming one? There goes the school might as well farmthem out now
So who is the leader. The one pushing union? You must know something, share. If he or she is going to tak edown the school we should no
I hear its friend of board
That pat is taking angry kurts place
What asses we have in town
I heard aides are starting union
I heard unions started aids. P.S. Stfu
why should they shut up if they know something id like tohear it so who is running this show and why are they doing this to the school and who is the person heading it
The union will detroy the school if its true glad to see the aides care about the kids isnt one related to dreisbach
Some people will never be happy no matter what.
You'd better hope you don't drive these people to quit because then you'll have to take over and see just how difficult it is.
The union will not destroy the school. It will give the aides what is fair. They absolutely care about the children of Morrisville.The poster above is right; it is not an easy job. One has nothing to do with the other.
What do the aides want that they think is fair? If its more money then where will the district find the money. The paper said they have over a $700,000 deficit. Money has to come from somewhere.
Isnt one of the uniin leaders a friend of board members and a few related to a board member and one related to an ex council do nothing?
Please name names, no idea who you're talking about, which ruins your anon guilt by association bomb throw.
I don't care who they are. Friend or family member doesn't make a difference. I want to know what the aides think is fair. More money? What?
Great now we have the aides taking g over the school well maybe th3y can work for pennsbury
Your weaselly comments are increasing my sympathy for the aides. Is reverse psychology your intention?
Suggestion -- unfounded lawsuits to block unionization, followed by juvenile complaining about legal bills.
In what way are the aides "taking g over the school"? Are they now replacing the Superintendent, Business Manager, Principals, etc and serving as the entire Administrative Team? Or are you using Jackassian Hyperbole because you're pissed they decided to organize as they have in many other districts?

Morrisville schools settle Head Start suit
By GEMA MARIA DUARTE Staff writer | Posted: Tuesday, February 25, 2014 8:28 pm
Morrisville School District has settled a more than $300,000 lawsuit with Bucks County Head Start
for $50,000.
Bucks County Head Start filed a $308,849 lawsuit against the school district in March 2012 in Bucks
County Court.
“The district makes no representation or warranties regarding any tax obligations arising out of the
payment of the settlement funds,” and Head Start is OK with that, according to the settlement signed
in late January and recently released to the newspaper. No further comment by officials was made.
Head Start, a nonprofit group that provides comprehensive social services and early childhood
education to needy families and children, had a 20-year lease contract with Morrisville School
District for the use of the former Manor Park School building on Penn Avenue.
That lease was slated to run from May 1, 1999, to Dec. 31, 2018. The district ended the lease on
March 29, 2010, for unknown reasons, according to court papers.
The lease agreement stated that if the school district terminated the lease before 2018, it had to pay
Head Start the actual costs, minus depreciation, for any building improvements, according to the
lawsuit. Additionally, Morrisville School District had to pay 40 percent of the amount Head Start has
paid the district in rent.
Head Start spent $20,438 for parking lot repairs, $23,358 for boiler gas conversion, another
$162,925.60 for the roof replacement, and $55,029.43 for heating and air conditioning repairs and
replacement, according to court papers.
All those expenses totaled $261,751. Of that, Head Start argued that the district owed the agency
$167,281.71.
Head Start paid $353,952 to the district in rent since 1999; the agency asked that Morrisville School
District pay 40 percent of that, which totals $141,580, according to the suit. Head Start demanded
payment in a letter to the district dated March 29, 2011. The agency claimed the district had refused
to fulfill its payment, according to court papers.
In addition to the $308,849, Head Starts wanted the district to pay $15,000 in lawyer fees and court
costs.
When the suit was filed in 2012, a former school board made the decision to end the lease. The
lawsuit included those former board members and some others who currently sit on the school board
now im figuring it out. aides unionizing. friend of board and one is related to ex council. I just watched last couple videos and only one aide is seen in a few shots around the room is she making deals with the board to get a good contract
It spells disaster, and you're a genius. Bravo!
Your tiny brain must need a rest after all that!
Where are the missing aides
Do their families know? Have you filed a police report?
The more you blab, the more I think they deserve. They provide a valuable service to our community and children. You provide the opposite.
Tough job $12 per hr no healthcare no job security. Who could ask for more???
I hear their all related and have orgies together and make deals to give each other more of my money.
I heard, I heard, why dosent every just go ask them im sure they would be very happy to discuss their motives and needs with anyone who will listen
I herd. I'm a shepheard.
They chose to be aides and have summers off, not the tax payers problem
Whether nature or nurture your choice or not you're a douche, aides chose to union ize and that is the taxpayers problem.
yes it is the tax payers burden and that should not be the case to pay them more $ and they have summers off and benefits to boot while the school is going down hill and cant pay what they have now good luck finding another job when they school closes

EPILOGUE: This horrible nasty blog died, and no new ones of its ilk or worse sprung up. Truth and reason carried the days. Everyone engaged in no-hate civil discourse and transparent factual communications. Never a harsh word was spoken again. Pepitone ran for mayor again and won in a landslide, leading Morrisville into a new safe harmonious era of prosperity. No more s***bags with slime dripping from their teeth, s*** pit, child killing nazis, loudmouths, cranks, racists, zealots, never happy misery loves company sad sack meddling losers. No more know it alls, lies, put downs, stalking, car-keying, fear mongering, dirty tricks, deceit, shovel-ready photo-opping, bullying, self righteous, self congratulating, grandstanding, blame shifting, f*** this f*** that evil dysfunctionality. No more bulls***, hypocrisy, tax breaks, patronage, frivolous rtks, take my toys and go home, voted off the island, white van pseudo abductors, gotcha gotcha, conspiracy theories. No more pet project little napoleon wannabes trying to be big fish in a little pond power trippers. No more big splash leave with a whimper faux heroes, Trenton, bridge closing, Trenton, Trenton, smartest guy in the room, wrap yourself in God the flag and a lapel pin woe is me victim aggressors. More police than ever. Cleanest statues in history with the pictures to prove it. Everyone took deep long looks in the mirror, got over themselves, and got some perspective and self awareness of their own complicity in the former madness. Taxes and bills were paid, mental illnesses recognized, treated, and tamed. The old chief offenders faded away or died, and no new ones rose up to take their places. Everyone lived happily ever after.
