City Budget

City Council is slated to vote on the 2009 budget at its meeting this Monday. Word is it's still undergoing revisions as I write this, but the latest info released from the city included this: 2009Expenses.pdf

Questions to ask:
Why was the Carl Chetty thrown out of the room when he asked for conditional approval in 2006 virtually killing his project?

Why is the pension fund in the hands of a company that no one has ever heard of?

What happened to $110,000 in codes fines to one person that the Commonwealth Court said the City of Coatesville could collect?

Why did Richard Legree spend so much time at City Hall?

Why were Andrew Lehr, (who has nothing to do with the RDA), Harry Walker and another Chester County resident in secret negotiations with power plant CEO’s at a Southern Chester County Tavern? Was the real money in the power plant proposal not in taxes but cash running through the fingers of certain local people that would have been part of a Coatesville Power Authority public/private consortium?

Why was the Financial Director abruptly fired when he was not a work due to an auto accident and a consultant who is apparently not-qualified hired to do the budget?

Are the city employees going to start snitching to save their own behinds?

why does the administration budget line item increase 20% when the EIP plan calls for a cut of 2 positions?

Why do they continue to pay the gabriel group to consult 5k a month and still screw up everything they do?

Walk into city hall sometime and count the empty offices.......of the dept heads that are out doing god knows what.....

lastly, who is up for removing these clowns from office?

City Council peed off Mr. Chetty from the very start when he attended his first council meeting and stood up and asked to speak and city council
didn't recognize him because they never saw him before, they told him he was out of order and to sit down. that's when he realized he was dealing with a bunch of inexperienced people.
