The worthless overpaid police chief would be a good place to start. Maybe he could deputitize the blind sheople of streator and crack down on big h problem. The sheople have not a clue of the substandard law enforcement practices of streator. The jack booted thug police would rather write seat belt tickets and building ordinance citations, picking on the local taxpayer pool.

Andy spent many days fishing with Opie, but because parents parented, teachers were allowed to discipline, and people respected others property, he wasnt expected to raise the towns children or the adults, either! Heroin is a huge problem that's seeped into small towns everywhere. It takes everyone's involvement to change things. You are correct Helencrump. I want to support Our Police Force but They make it hard . I've called the Police as well as My Neighbors on several Occasions as to DRUG DEALS going down in FRONT OF OUR HOUSES or Thugs beating each OTHER up. WE'VE been told in so many words to turn a BLIND EYE. WHY? I don't bother calling Them ANYMORE it hasn't done ME or MY NEIGHBORS any good. The DRUGS Deals still go on because THE THUGS know that THIS POLICE FORCE is AFRAID of THEM. The THUGS Themselves will LAUGH and Tell YOU that very same thing. It seems that if it's NOT in THEIR NEIGHBORHOOD (Police and City Officials) They don't want to be BOTHERED. JMO

JMOTake matters in your own hands and go to the next higher up in law enforcement and file complaints. Spd sure in the hell wouldn't want another police dept investigating ours. All it takes is a number of people here all going to the higher authority with the same complaints and letting them know you went to the locals and refuse to do something about it. See how fast our pd changes their tune when the higher ranking authorities come storming our police dept to investigate. The loudest squeaky wheel gets the grease,meaning the more you keep fighting this the more they will eventually will have to do their jobs to stop the problem.

I HAVE gone to HIGHER AUTHORITY'S just to be told "TALK TO YOU LOCAL AUTHORITY'S". I've GOTTEN RETALIATIONS from City OFFICIALS on down. I've tried, (zzz)I'm DONE. I've recruited this saying in MY daily Life. IT'S NOT MY PROBLEM. So FAR it's working.

What do you mean you GOTTEN RETALIATIONS from City OFFICIALS on down? Those in elected office knows doing this kind of stuff to a taxpayer/voter can cause them their seats come next elections. Which voters can vote them out of office for that kind of behavior.

Which voters can vote them out of office for that kind of behavior. That's RIGHT, RETALIATION I VOTED for some NEW BLOOD. OBLIVIOUS My Vote wasn't enough to get some NEW FACES in Those high and might Seats. When You can't get People to go out and VOTE it gets to be a problem. I will CONTINUE to VOTE for NEW BLOOD for City Officials. Until then "IT'S NOT MY PROBLEM".

RU, that's a huge reason I moved us outside city limits when we had kids........ I believe it made a big difference.
Streator is a wonderful town, but it ain't the same one that I moved to in 1990.....

I've read about the drug coalition making drug busts recently. Have you asked to meet with them? While I was reading your post, I also wondered if the drug coalition is already involved in it, and the spd officers are staying out of it, to not mess up something that is ongoing. Because, one sale is going to earn someone a slap on the wrist. Another thing, they might've known the sale was going to take place even before you witnessed it. Years ago I was on my way to a concert, with a large group of kids. There were about 4 cars full of us. We made a BR, stop, at a hotel along the way. We all entered the parking lot from different enterences and most of the girls headed into the building. I was the first one out, and when I opened the door, I was facing a line of cop cars, surrounding the lot. Doors open, guns drawn. Our guys that didn't go in, where face down, and I was freaking. The cops were removing seats from vehicles, etc. And they were pissed as they were realizing we were just a bunch of long hair teens on the way to a concert, that had to pee. Right in the middle of their sting, waiting for a huge drug bust that they'd worked months on setting up. Wrong long haired hippy group. Bet we cost them tons of money down the drain. Shoulda peed in an alley

If I could get HALF of what MY HOUSE IS WORTH I'd sell it to the FIRST Person that SHOWED ME THE MONEY. Law Abiding Citizen , Drug King Pin ()OR Thug P-)I'd sell it to Them and move to Livingston County at least. Because after I'm gone "IT'S NOT MY PROBLEM".

Shoulda peed in an alley This has been going on for YEARS. They are aware of the Drug Dealing. The Neighborhood is aware They aren't doing anything.

I see they are working on the fountian. By the looks of it, there is NO fountain left? Granted I have yet to venture into the park to see it up close. TOSH I've been meaning to ask you what is the picture that you have featured in your signature line on here? IT is a wooden cross...but with what on the bottom though? M

All new concrete fountain is being built. That is why the old one is being removed. I hope they refurbish the metal ornate fountain in front of the park facing Hickory St.
