Former toledo Mayor Carty Finkbeiner is well-known for his antics and great ideas. Here's one:
Finkbeiner suggested relieving the problem of noise complaints from neighbors of Toledo Express Airport by selling homes nearby at low cost to deaf people.
A few more for amusement, I didn't know he had a wiki page, it didn't refer to his buying a house cheap and having it floated down the Maumee river, though...
Finky Winkerbein sounds like a real rocket scientist.
