Hialeah unveils portrait of colorful ex-mayor

The city of Hialeah recalled a colorful anecdote last week when it accepted a portrait of former Mayor Henry Milander.

The presentation of the portrait, which will hang at City Hall, included a mention from 1957, when a reporter asked Milander if it was true he had fixed 500 traffic tickets for his constituents.

?That?s a goddam lie,? Milander said. ?I fixed 5,000.?

Milander ruled Hialeah for nearly three decades, despite being briefly ousted by a 1970 corruption conviction. He was later easily reelected.

Said sitting Mayor Carlos Hernandez: ?He was a true Hialeah politician.?
