Manhattan Adult Entertainment: Gene E. Etchinson Enters Irvington Mayoral Race
Prostitution and vandalism are still ongoing. Some of the same blighted areas did not change or progress at all; like Coit Street, 21st Street, 22nd Street, 18th Avenue corridor, Mills Run, Grove Street coming from Newark. There are no new developments in Irvington. His developments are cookies. He dropped the Grove Street School project because he had a deadline to finish with his proposal for the development of the area and he failed to finish the project. It never went through because he missed the deadline. There was a time when you left Newark and entered in Irvington, you felt better. Now, see the difference. Newark is developing and Irvington is declining. There is a public outcry that they want change. Why is the mayor making $80,000 a year and having layoffs and furloughs for the other employees? There are people working in administration that do not live in the township, but do not get layoffs or furloughs and those who live in Irvington get the heat.
