Then you Councilman Anderson's assistant whom everyone knows doesn't every come to work and Ckuncilman Deutsch's azsistant who hears things in the walls, is it any wonder wjy they can't enforce ordiances.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-982633190780306493.post-83770071724634149252014-05-17T19:12:14.182-04:002014-05-17T19:12:14.182-04:00Anonymous 339pm;

Surely as full time political appt known as an administrative asst is not necessary. health insurance alone is $25k apiece x 9 = $225,000. Then cut the $5000 budget consultant (although clearly this expense indicates lack of skill set to be a council person). Finally a lawyer / legislative liaison for $140k? Seems like a luxury and I'd check that guys are time sheet to make sure he's not on our dime when doing SBOE work. And when I say show leadership I don't mean the paper shuffle of pushing the expense onto another department ala Mr & Mrs cloud. BTW where is that missing $670,000?<br />Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-982633190780306493.post-22066452193864315272014-05-16T13:13:28.106-04:002014-05-16T13:13:28.106-04:00Hey brookman, panagore is back.

Counsel and Internal Audit are to work for the city not the Mayor in order to be transparent and integrity. These two work an report directly to the Mayor, heck Kee Borges is this corput Mayor's advisor and cabinent member, so no we don't have the funds for Council to hire outside counsel, we need to for some objectivity. If these two offices continue to be a threat to identify and fight coruption, then we need to fund outside Counsel for both, Internal Audit needs to utalize the outside counsel also.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-982633190780306493.post-28217561097224871652014-05-15T21:32:57.472-04:002014-05-15T21:32:57.472-04:00This council is no better than the Mayor.

We are so broke in Hartford that we need to raise taxes but the council can hire a full time lawyer, internal audit wants their own lawyers, and I just read council hired back former coo Panagore as a consultant to help them figure out this mess. I find it completely laughable as Panagore couldn't do anything to help when he worked as the coo but he now quoted as someone with financial acumen that can help. Seriously?!!! He was part of the problem. Perhaps if he used his brain back then, just maybe the hole wouldn't be so big now. Maybe we sould bring back kupiec too to help this council do its job. All this spending tells me the city ain't broke, just the taxpayers.
