From the Email InBox: Open Letter to City Council and Citizens of GT

Dear GT City Council.

Since you are so dedicated and so nice and all you want to do is serve. Well, serve up a lawsuit against the "List of Preparers", (the writers), of the OAC specific plan and get our money back. If you bought a faulty air conditioner you would want your money back. Oh wait a minute, you did. Well you bought a flawed specific plan. In fact every plan you have bought is flawed and is costing us more than they will ever bring in, anyway more than it will bring in to the city. I'm not saying someone isn't making money but it's not us.

In fact hire Mr. Johnson, apparently he knows more than the legal eagles you and and your leader Schwab, hire. Mr. Johnson is batting a 1000, but then he's major league and your guys seem not to be able to even get off the bench. Awe what the heck, they get paid win or loose.

You Council Members better come to grips with the incompetence of Mr. Schwab and Mr. Koontz. You are responsible for their actions. Schwab is dishonest and his only talent appears to be to make a mess of the Cities finances. Mr. Koontz works two days a week for the City and three days a week for Nolte Engineering, one of the preparer. Now he has changed companies and Councilman Miller questioned a $5800.00 check to this new company he works for. Are you starting to catch on yet. Just think how much he could do for us if he worked full time. Please don't let him work on the High school

Dear GT Citizens:

The City kept the OAC quite for a year or so before bringing it to the public. Ralph Megna and Gary Koontz companies made hundreds of thousands. The Partners come in and show it's not marketable or feasible and Megna, who also had a contract with the city has disappeared. Even their fiscal impact study was a joke. GT would have gone into the hole over a million a year on law enforcement alone. You would think these intellectuals, Harper included would know the law well enough to just submit and just do it over. Nope they make money off the City win or loose. They couldn't care less if they loose. They still get paid. I'll ask when they are all done how much the City has had to spend in legal fees including Johnson's for incompetence. Is it more than a $150,000 a year? Schwab is in the City's Employ because....?

Gramps asks: Is there or has there ever been a case where the actions of a City Official/Elected or Employeed, become a personal Liability, rather than being absorbed by the City and Citizens? How many times do the Citizens of GT have to suffer from the same errors made by the same people?
