The treatment towards latinos from these communities has been extremely negative. Plainfield has slowly seen a large increase in its latinos population and so has the increase in bias crimes towards latinos. As for the people running the town its a joke the corruption is monumental, property taxes extremely high with nothing to show for it, the school are bad,you have to pay for garbage.sewerage, the street and sidewalk are a horror and don't try to have something done to your home they will try to make you pay for anything done to your house. The town looks raggie only now that the latino community has been buying homes and opening business is this town coming to life. Even with the bias of the other communites latinos are rebuilding the face of Plainfield. The towns around Plainfield are beautiful (Westfield,Fanwood,South Plainfield and Cranford). I also see that the blacks who are in office are only puppets having there strings pull by the whites with money in this town. I would like to see a Federal Investigation of all the government agencies in this town. I see why North Plainfield and South Plainfield want nothing to do with Plainfield. I hope someday the Sleep Hollow section of Plainfield would follow suit. As long as people of color keep from being united we will stay in the same situation, white never see themself as different so they remain united we should learn a lesson from them. If you are planing to look to buy a house or open a business in Plainfield take another look, you mite not like what you see. As for myself, my house is up for sale and hopefully I would be out of here next year.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1909246571366789334.post-18639486106627384462007-06-20T11:03:00.000-04:002007-06-20T11:03:00.000-04:00Santiago heritage and being of minority staus is c...Santiago heritage and being of <BR/>minority staus is commendable.<BR/>However, the question is, has he <BR/>exemplied quality and qualified <BR/>effective leadership. In my opinion "No". There have been <BR/>countless complaints against officer's and him for years. He <BR/>is viewed by the Latino/hispanic<BR/>negatively and as well in the Black community. Personality and <BR/>feelings of personal attack are <BR/>at play. If you can't fairly and<BR/>totally fulfill the role, <BR/> You've got to Go!! in any job.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
