Mayor defends $94,000 hire amid job freeze

Ahab.....That was his other Deputy Mayor's kid (Bill Summers) He was an assistant coach at KSU and gets hired as a supervisor at HUD for 64K a year. When the story broke he was transferred to Metro HR as a supervisor.

As far as the cars go the report has been submitted and the supervisor at the Department of Labor will make the final ruling within 30 days.

I'm with you, when and where? They are having a Tax Day protest at Jefferson Park on Sunday, there will already be media there, maybe some signs and such?

Yeah Ol' Ricky J's drawin' another $90+ along with his pension after his supposed retirement, Jane's doing the same thing too (looks like she's gonna need it with another mouth to feed) while there's a hiring freeze. Jerr's forgivin' another chunk owed to taxpayers to another company for the Liberty Street housing project ($7 mil+) along with another $850K to Cordish after the Starks renovation went belly up and they decided to remodel a bankrupt bar/bowling alley on 4th Streest Live to open another sports bar with your money (whether you like it or not). He doesn't have the money to open or maintain Otter Creek Park, he doesn't don't have the money to open the swimming pools for the kids, he doesn't have money to allow the police officers to take their cars home to provide faster response time and/or help deter crime in their area and he doesn't have money to pay the firefighters for the work they already have performed, but he's got money for more bike lanes, more flower plantings and trees, more renovations for "special offices" (such as for the Stimulus Office), his Green Intiative for all Metro buildings, etc, etc, etc, ... but the people love him and the unions succomb to him because of the "D" by his name ... SAD ...
