Connie Cosement-Stop Coddling Recently there was another problem in the 1st Ward, were a young man who threatened a couple and their dog with harm. Apparently he was finally taken to a lock up. How long is this crap going to go on Connie, how long are you going to ignore it with your own ideas, 'task force' groups, and coalitions? Those people in your Ward that you are suppose to work for are getting sick of your 'weak' emails and ideas. These students are breaking the laws, underage drinking, and now threats of harm. Well, Connie, you might live a liberal life, but don't push your lifestyle on your constituents. When someone threatens a resident of Oswego, it doesn't matter if they are a Greek student, they still need to be arrested, etc. Why do you think they don't have to obey the laws here, and why has there ever been any question about it? The law is the law, and that goes for those frats and sororities that you coddle. Former 1st Ward Resident

It sounds like a police problem. Connie may think she is the city Queen but she can't do squat about some kid making threats. Connie is a useless twit who has a lot of far fetched ideas, too bad she doesn't have the brains to actually do anything. One of the biggest problems with our councilors is they spend too much time thinking up plans to better Oswego that never implemented (thank God), and little time taking action on the real issues.

The only councilors who are any good are the ones who get out and meets with their ward's residents to find out what's really going on then act on those things before they get out of hand. I didn't see anything in the paper. Who was it?

A member from a well known party frat group was involved, I am sure the papers will eventually get up enough courage to post about it. As you might have noticed--Connie, Tim, and Dehm, all old Greeks I believe, try to stay neutral with these types of disturbances. Connie is into the 'good neighbor thing', but when someone is drunk and not walking in reality, you can't reason with them. No families or singles should have to live in fear of those types of threats against their families or their selves.

Who is hiding this CRIME? what I heard was that some gamma brother threatened a homeowner AND their dog late one night on the weekend. he pounded on their door until they woke up and started threatening them. why haven't you heard anything? the police chief dehm is a former gamma brother. such a nice man protecting his thug brothers.

Sounds to me like a police problem not a councilor problem. Our police should have been called to deal with the problem. I think our young police need to be schooled on the laws of this city.

Oh the police were called, took him away. Alderman in that ward is wishy, washy.......has made it easy for Greeks to get away with things. Chief of OPD was a Gamma brother, he needs to start doing the right thing concerning the Greeks. Hopefully those threated will not let this one event die, but pursue JUSTICE!

Last Common Council Meeting-10/9 Apparently Cozy Cosemento is now taking up time at the C.C. Meeting to thank everybody [ and their neighbors!] for helping at the Pumpkin Fest, Cleaning a Park,etc. She should have dropped the Fest this years and went out to met her constituents, some have never had her come to their home this year or in '05. She has lost those Democrat votes. But her opponent, "J." Scanlon is out going door to door meeting the residents in the 1st Ward, were Cozy is sending people around for her. I can see people out there going door to door for you when you have already gone thorough once. Way to go "J".

Sorry to hear that she hasn't stopped by your house, she has stopped here. She has been busy around some problem areas in the ward. I watched the common council meeting to see if she would mentioned all that is going on ( I kinda wish she would so others know how busy this ward is and how often she has done things to help). When I 1st moved here from a different ward my street was a mess. It has dramatically improved since CC has taken office although much more is needed. Good things are happening but it takes time. Who ever wins I hope it continues to improve.
