Currently I am trying a make him relax next to me for half an hour to one hour strat even as things that frustrate him travel by and get him calmed down every time he gets growly.
I have already tried aggressiveness but that only makes him more aggressive and act out as well.
Disciplining appears to have him then refocus the pent up aggression somewhere else.
So the only recourse seems to be to teach it to mellow out.
How should I go about doing this?
Neutering is also on the table. Should it be done?

multiple neighbors already feeds him. I have a no feeding the dogs in my neighborhood policy. So that any time anyone tries to pin the blame for the dogs on me I can deny having taken complete responsibility for them.

Yes but other people feed them so I doubt it would work for me. Also people might hold me responsible for the dogs if I fed them. It's already bad enough with them beginning to get aggressive with the children now. I had to stop one from possibly attacking or just trying to dominate a teenage child today.

Get a leash and keep each one on it for half an hour a day?
