So what does everyone think about the Mayor's possible lawsuit against City Council?
Permalink  
 

Just throwing this out there for debate ... what thoughts do you have on the Mayor's possible lawsuit against City Council .... I for one am not surprised ... and figured that it would be coming.  Is the supermajority going to break Scranton or Save it ... my opinion is that they are going to break it more than it is already broken.

Some of the paycuts are pretty incredible ... where did Mr. Joyce come up with these numbers?  I know the paper mentioned something about the salaries being based on 2001 salaries ... but if that's the case then why are some being cut by thousands of dollars and others are taking a hit of less than one thousand dollars?

And I have to ask this ... what is Mr. Joyce's profession?  I am not trying to be DD like ... and I surely hate to have to say this ... but he does not appear to be the sharpest tool in the shed ... I have to wonder where Mrs. Evans head was when she 1) had him as a running mate (she knew she could minipulate this one) 2) put the finances of the city into his hands .... but that is just an opinion ... if someone knows him to be different than I described then please .... please ... please enlighten me.  I have only formed my opinion on his performance at City Council Meetings.

Super Majority or not, She is out to break the rules of the Home Rule Charter, and if anyone thinks this is not important look out. The state will come in and take over, we have a strong Mayor form of Government, we must folllow this unless voted out. Then she can rule the roost. I can't wait to see where the court system goes with this one, it should be interesting, very interesting. My gut feeling here is that the courts will tell Council and the Mayor, here are the rules now go play nice.

That's how it should be ... Janet is using this as a political move and not in the best interest of the city ... she is flexing her political muscles and nothing more. This will be tied up in the court system for years ... just so she can make a power play. How much will this cost the taxpayers?

If the mayor sues council it will be the worst move he can make. He will not sue council he will sue the citizens. He should just realize if it is not in this budget it will be in the next one all the cuts. He should learn to play nice and his reign of terror will soon end. and as for the people who will loose jobs and take cuts. oh well thats life.

Rockin Robin, see "oh well thats life" wasn't Janet's Campaign rallying cries.  I think I remember hearing "no more pay to play politics", and "no jobs/raises for cronies".  It seems that is has been completely thrown out:

Nancy Krake : New Job/ and gets an assistant
Boyd Hughes : Raise


And I think I remember getting phone calls from two aspiring councilman, Rogan and Joyce saying how they want to work with the administration to move the city forward?  What we got, "um ugh I didn't have time to call the Business Administrator or Department Heads or even to council Mr McGoff because I thought he wouldn't be for discussing these cuts" ~Joyce


They ran stating NO MORE PAY TO PLAY CRONIES and WORKING WITH THE ADMINISTRATION.  6 Weeks into their reign and they are rewarding cronies and have yet to contact the administration.  These are NOT SAVIORS, its just the same old Scranton politics!

Rockin Robin that is your opinion and you are entitled to it ... I'll respect that ... however this is something the I have no doubt in my mind that it will happen if Janet implements the proposed changes to the budget ... and in the end she says she will save between six hundred and seven hundred thousand dollars ... but as Mr. McGoff pointed out at last evenings meeting ... how much of that will be eaten up by the unemployment compensation that will has to be paid out because Janet laid off ... and cut salaries and jobs in an arbitrary and capricious manner? What will the true savings to the city be ... in the end even if there is no lawsuit it could end up costing us more!

Since this whole cluster-f&^k is just a political maneuver by Janet Evans anyway (if it were purely about saving money, why then hire a secretary for a secretary?), I say why not sue?  The Mayor is damned if he does, and damned if he doesn't.  At least a court ruling will clearly define just what "strong mayor" form of government really means.

What's more, the notion of Pilchesky complaining about a bogus lawsuit is so full of the ironic that it belongs in the Irony Hall-0-Fame.  Let's see if anyone at DD has the guts to point this little fact out to Mr. NuisanceLawsuit himself.

Any takers?  Glenn?

The Lawyers for both sides WIN,, not the tax payers.. keep spending and spending, no one ever wins in these battles. No wonder they hired Nancy a secratary and gave Boyd a $3000.00 raise.

Nancy is being paid for her support, just like the Mayor paid supporters with jobs and contracts.  Zero difference.

Doomers...not once in over three thousand posts have I ever claimed that Chris Doherty was anything other than a politician's politician.  Did he give out raises as favors?  Probably.  But he's not the one banging the "I'm for the people and all the others are crooks" gong that you see Team Evans doing every Tuesday evening.

Let me telegraph this one for you:

Chris Doherty - GUILTY of being a politician

Janet Evans - GUILTY of being a politician and GUILTY of being a BLATANT HYPOCRITE for denying the first charge.

Doomers my man...breakdowns?  Are you serious?  You had better say away from the model glue.  Evans as mayor would be a gold mine for us.  That would create a DAILY STREAM of material to write about.  Oh, and it won't just be us either.  Let the disability watch begin!

If Doherty wins, Council gets to select an interim Mayor.  I have some folks telling me that Janet may not be the only one interested in the job.  Hint:  her poodles may not be quite so obedient.

If you read and comprehended what the post said Doomers ... it was referring to the private meeting that pertain to the budget with counil members Joyce and Rogan. These meetings admittedly took place at Janet Evans house ... if you don't believe me find the council meeting at which they talked about doing this. It did not refer to the feds meeting with her in her home. Just speculation as to one of the things she may have been asked about.

And yes we are serious about being upset about Krake and Hughes being hired as Janet screamed from the rafters that it should never have happened with Doherty ... and as soon as she got the chance ... she hired Krake. Now when the City Clerk position opened after Jay Saunders left they advertised the position ... interviewed for it and then they hired Kay Garvey for it ... hmmmmm .... where was the advertisement and when did the interviews take place?????? That would be a question for you Doomers.

I must type too quickly for you to read. Let me go  R E A L   S L O W

You mention shredders working OT so I asked if you were referring to shredders at Missy Jan's? It was a satirical response to your comment. I was linking her questionable budget meetings with questioning by the FBI....(we might have breakdowns? You need to lighten up not us) ...so does that help you to understand? I will try to go slower next time so you can keep up. :)

Who needs to beat her?  After all, you're one of the ones who's convinced that Doherty won't win the Senate race, so your question is moot, isn't it?

Make up your mind.  Is Doherty "Mayor for ever" or is Evans being sworn in soon?  I understand that you're simply throwing out a scenario, but it sounds more like trolling than anything else.

Besides, will Janet even be eligible to be mayor once she's incarcerated?  (There's MY scenario for YOU).
