- 08/29/08 02:57 PM
I had a lovely lunch with my wife and sons here the other day. I had a sandwich (2 fried eggs, pork roll and cheese on a nice, fresh Kaiser roll).

The Kitchen and Baths have all been updated, and the hardwood floors are beautifully finished. One of the nicest features in my opinion was the enclosed rear porch.

delaware county: As a Family Mourns, Firefighters Say they Could have Done More with More
- 07/11/08 08:06 AM
The recent tragic death of 3 Chester Residents in a house fire has firefighters on the west side of the city saying they could have done more if there was more funding, staffing, and equipment for the fire company. It is my hope, that the city will see the value in increasing the funding for the fire department. As the roughly $550 Million waterfront re-development project progresses, with its professional soccer stadium, new town homes, and new commercial areas, there will be dramatic increase in demand for these services, and an increase in the dollar cost of potential losses due to fire, I … (4 comments)

delaware county: Chester Community Grocery Co-Op: Sustainable Economic Stimulus
- 03/11/08 01:25 PM
by Rich Schiffer After reading Amy Brisson's article in the Delaware County Times, I feel compelled to respond: She titled her article, "Chester's Community Grocery Co-op wants to expand." For the sake of Chester, I truly hope they succeed, as their effort represents a level of "revitalization" that the community truly will benefit from. The newly approved soccer stadium and the redevelopment of the Chester waterfront may be seen by future historians as the project that gave rebirth to an ailing city, but what will make that rebirth sustainable - ensuring that Chester does not fall back into the ashes it is … (2 comments)
