It’s truly amazing that this BOE would listen to Eddie T on appointing a baseball coach. This is the same Eddie T that sold a polluted property in 1998 to the BOE for 1,450,000 dollars, the same property that he paid less than 250,000 dollars for. To this day the property is still vacant and still costing the taxpayers’ money.

Someone should ask Wilda Diaz’s campaign manager Tom Zambrowski, who was the Board president at the time of the purchase and Mayor Diaz’s running mate Councilman Fernando Irizarry, who was on the BOE Building and Grounds Committee in 1998, why they paid so much for a property that 15 years later is still vacant. Joe Vas was the Mayor in 1998 and Wilda Diaz is the Mayor in 2014 and Eddie T is still getting whatever he wants. Some things never change.
