As such, the representatives that spend that money have a duty to do so with the best of intentions and regards to those that paid that money.

Those moneys are NOT a slush fund, to be spent to make the government look caring, benevolent, any other adjective, or with the intention of ensuring reelection. If the government looks good as a result of the spending, that’s fine. But that should not be the primary focus!

Mayor Flintstone, Sergeant Curtis Schultz, Comrade Matlow and his pinko sidekick all need to be voted out yesterday.

But it won’t happen.

And then they say “look at this place we made for you”… with a straight face.

Like the $600,000 bus stop at Orange ave and Meridian Road. They made a really nice place for the same crack dealers to hang out and sell crack. I mean, it’s a heck of a lot nicer than the old bus stop they used to sell crack at… for 600k of our money! Every time I catch that red light I watch a drug deal go down. No one is remotely worried about getting caught either.

Every commissioner needs to be fired the first chance we get. They are all just a bunch of self-serving hacks trying to figure out new ways to separate the taxpayers from our money.

There isn’t an ounce of honesty or humility in the entire bunch!

Time to defund Blueprint, this whole agency has jumped the shark

With the huge problem we have with Sewage, WHY does the Alt. SEWER Sol. only get $500,000?
