SCHENECTADY DEJA VU: L.JOHN, YOU'RE FIRED

In what may be history repeating itself, a resolution is being introduced for Tuesday night's Council meeting to remove Deputy Corporation Counsel L. John Van Norden from his position.

Van Norden had previously left Schenectady , New York under a cloud of suspicion as their City Attorney. You can read that story here.

The resolution is being introduced by Councilman Larry Deutsch and sources are telling me that other Democratic Council people will possibly be signing on to the resolution. I am also being told five votes required for the passage are probably a good bet.

Van Norden has had his issues on numerous occasions recently for intemperate behavior in dealing with the Council and related City business including an  e-mail describing Councilman Raul Dejesus as apparently having mental health  issues.

Here is the proposed resolution:

My thought, "This is Hartford, they all said they had the green light" or maybe "Sandy, don't
forget the Crabshack free drink coupons"
