"WON'T GET FOOLED AGAIN" who

Something else that interested me at the last council meeting, along with the  magnificent "7" wanting a definition of a FAMILY, ignoring Ashlawn again, plus someone else looking and waiting for facts the city already has.

There was a presentation by our Finance Director Andy Unetic, pretty much standard fare, here is our revenue so far this year for this fund or that. Here is how it compares to last year, and here how it compares to 2008. Great I have heard this story over and over again.
Maybe the next time our esteemed council-president asks for a presentation from the finance director he may ask to change up the report, lets compare all the expenses from so far this year to last year and 2008. How much has are payroll increased? Increase or decreases in overtime and where? How much has the benefits increased, has employee cost's increased? Show us where the not only the amount of money coming in show  where it is being spent on and what?
The city claim is that we are operating on around 3 million dollars less than in 2008 what were we spending that money on and why back then? That 3 million could have be spent on roads maybe in 2008?

Questions,
Should Lori DiNallo ask Arlene Becks what improvement in judgement does she now possess that you didn't have when you voted on AMPGS that has already cost Painesville  $2.1 million?
Should Arlene Becks ask Lori DiNallo that we can expect you if re-elected to promise to sit on city council for your full four year term,yes or no?

Should Tom Fitzgerald ask John Murphy what qualifications he has to sit on council .
Should John Murphy ask Tom Fitzgerald if he is elected will the still conduct tours to Europe and mail his vote in from Dublin?

Should Renee Aston ask  James Fodor what exactly have been his accomplishments on council in the last four years,any legislation?
Should James Fodor ask Renee Aston what exactly will you bring to council to further the progress of Painesville?

The most important question they all should ask each other, if these  levies fail what are YOUR plans for the financial future of Painesville?

No questions will be asked. We run our council like a high school student council. The popular students get elected whether they know anything or not.

That was funny, but in the end not really. Student council, so much truth behind that comment and I do laugh. Andy Unetic, blah blah blah. A comment was made by a friend to change the marquee in city hall to "Spin Director".
