Dear City of Racine Alderpersons, Journal Times has done an outstanding job of reporting on, and attempting to discover where over $118,00 of taxpayer generated funds has - once again - simply disappeared to. See: https://journaltimes.com/news/local/city-has-spent-on-still-unreleased-mayor-ordered-police-study/article_5236dbcc-8f6c-5ddf-8bca-5d909a85dc42.html#tncms-source=infinity-scroll-summary-siderail-latest And of course - a controversy over whether the funds could be disbursed without Common Council approval has begun - with (incompetent - or so I claim) City Attorney Scott Letteney (observations based upon classifying ordinary Open Record E-Mails as Attorney Client privilege) claiming that he can essentially spend any amount he deems necessary, even when it exceeds the statutory aggregate limit of $50,000 - because instead of billing a one time "total amount" - it is instead - billed in hourly increments at less than $50,000 per hour. (LOL) Per Journal Times: "Usually when it comes to the “procurement of professional services,” City Council approval is needed if the cost of the professional services exceeds $50,000 in a given year. However, since MWH Law Group was paid via hourly rate for its attorneys and not a predetermined fee, then council approval wasn’t necessary, Letteney said". Dear City Alderpersons, I have some services I would like to sell you at $49,999.99 per hour........ General Incompetence and Malfeasance reigns supreme in the disorderly Racine City Hall ruled by horribly incompetent elect Mayor Cory Mason - and his 4 overpaid and unnecessary co-horts hiding in the City Administration Office. It is well past time to rectify the situation and do the right action for City of Racine Taxpayers. In addition, pursue criminal charges against Malfeasant Officials - and demand restitution to make Taxpayers whole again. It is glaringly obvious that City of Racine can now *FIRE* 3 unnecessary positions from the 5 currently ensconced in the Mayor's Office - begin wage and compensation decreases - to better match that of 3rd World Nations, and emerging economies, and.... *FIRE* Glaringly Incompetent City Attorney Scott Letteney and his entire incompetent and seemingly malfeasant staff. When public records are made secret - Racine Residents are being ruled by mentally ill Tyrants. *FIRE* Glaringly Incompetent City Administrator (Profit? Loss? Revenue? Expense? - what's the difference) Nick Palenick - who is completely lost to the basics of a balance sheet. *RESIGN* Cory! Who ran for Mayor but believed he couldn't do the job so he demanded two more in the Mayor's Office - 3+2 = 5. THIS IS OUTRAGEOUS! *FREE* Sandy! STOP the HATE! End the oppression of a courageous Alderperson who performed her role with diligence, respect for the rule of law, and utmost consideration for her constituents. Sincerely, Tim & Cindy
