So I really needed time to digest/forget last Mon. Circus Council....group of out-there speakers, last minute antics with TIF funds, and ending with the Council gauntlet laid down over the obscene raise proposed for LarryBoy's GoldenGirl, JuliahyphenatedValdez ....


WAIT ONE MINUTE!!! (started this last week,my, things happen quickly when one procrastinates,huh?)

THIS week's meeting was one for the DVR,kids...LarryBoy's on vacation, his bestest LarryBotBenitaScurvy named mayor pro-tem...and she showed her impatience with any threats to Allegiance to the LarryBoy Empire...
Check it out, there was(IS) a MAJORITY of the Council that have a REAL PROBLEM with all the dire budget news and accepting the proposed(?) $34,000-a-year RAISE for Julia and, through a series of motions and amendments, voted her an interim position/salary bump....
( Parliamentarian "TightSuit"Hayes had his work set out for him, stumbling,mumbling,cautioning under the questions and pressures)

In the end(despite Scurvey's play of the GENDER CARD), Council(AND TAXPAYERS!!) won out with the lesser pay increase...

BUT "...Morrissey, who was on vacation and didn’t attend the council meeting, said that his designee for the position of HR director remains Julia Scott Valdez, even though the council did not approve her appointment....Monday night, Morrissey said Valdez is doing the job and got the raise he negotiated with her, and he has no plans to proceed any differently...."

See folks, it is no wonder we have a 'budget crisis' when we have King LarryBoy ignoring the Council and spending as HE SEES FIT(remember the Adam Smith$41,000hush-hush raise?)

It's Good to Be KING!!!!
