“Billboard Frank” is on too many corners. Walk or drive around town and “Billboard Frank” is in your face. In most of Westchester County lawn signs are of a similar size. Not in Peekskill. In Peekskill, Frank Catalina puts up billboard signs that are held up by great big pieces of lumber. This is visual pollution! Frank Catalina is making Peekskill ugly.
“Healthy Frank” bought twelve years of health insurance from the City of Peekskill after he resigned from his city attorney job in 2001. He claims he was vested even though he didn’t have five years continuous service. At end of 2012, some city personnel were let go. In early 2013 job responsibilities were redistributed and this is when a check from Frank for health insurance surfaced. Why, when this came to light, did Frank immediately agree to buy private insurance if, as he says, he was entitled to get it through the city?
