“Why is the City subsidizing a private company at below market lease rates at the Community Center??“
Unlike most of the folks that went to Tuesday nite’s Rochester (NH) City Council that were there to berate the Councilors and Mayor TJ Jean for expending taxpayer monies in supporting President Obama’s campaign stop or to plead that the Councilors not sign onto the Granite State Future Plan, this plucky lady, Doris Hincks, delighted my heart – with a big flashlight on city dealings. She obviously works over the numbers and she found out that the City was letting a dance company use space at the Community building at half rates and it was not clear how the space was upgraded, who was responsible, and a confusion around lease agreements – to the tune of $78,000. Dig the gasp from the crowd when she announces the amount – I Love It!
Many folks think “Hey, I did my part by elected these clowns reputable Councilors and they have appointed crony crooks upstanding and detailed oriented bureaucrats and paper pushers professionals to take care of the details in a haphazard meticulous fashion. “Network” time – She’s “mad as hell and isn’t gonna take it anymore!” I only wish that more citizens would be as informed and as motivated as she in carrying out what we all should be doing – Quis custodiet ipsos custodes?
$78,000 dollars – lost by incompetence at best
