You know how crazy making it is when you watch CSPAN and riders are introduced to oh, an agricultural bill that has nothing to do with the original bill?  They try to do that on a more local level as well. First the issue: whether or not to have a Cuyahoga County Land Bank, so the County could purchase foreclosed properties or have them donated to them by the bank/owners.

State Sen. Grindell is trying to add a proposition to this bill…the proposition being that County governments are reformed.  Talk about apples and oranges, both good but not needed on the same bill?  Anyway, Hagen, DiMora and Lawson Jones are in favor of the Land Bank idea but said they will only support it if this Grindell rider is not added to it. Stay tuned for more. And you can read about it here in the Plain Dealer.
