One Lie After Another




Document belowHandout and agenda for South Euclid City Council Safety Committee Public Hearing; March 18, 2013.

A few observations about the handout (below) distributed to those in attendance at the March 18th meeting.

Mayor Welo accepts no responsibility for any part of the financial state of affairs in South Euclid.  The majority of the blame is placed on Governor Kasich with a few shots fired at county and federal levels as well.  Yet there is no mention of her refusal to make any reduction in administrative and non-collective bargaining salaries.  There is also no mention of the colossal amount of debt the taxpayers of South Euclid have been involuntarily saddled with for the next 30 years because of the Mayor’s decision to purchase Cedar Center and the Greenvale 9.  Despite the mayor’s claim in the taxpayer funded handout, “…wage freezes were implemented from 2009-2012…” – that was not the case.  During that time period, a number of $15,000 individual raises were awarded.  *Please see examples cited below. 



    


*Links below:  The information below is contrary to the Mayor's claims of, "...wage freezes were implemented from 2009 - 2012..."



Video below:  Mayor Welo offers the following:

“…One of the reasons that police and fire are being effected is because now we’re cutting into the bone…”

“…There’s no more fat, we’re cutting into the bone, and that’s not good…"

Welo makes her 3rd reference to “cutting into the bone.”

    Video belowIn response to a citizen’s commentary regarding the city’s apparent lack of preparedness, Mayor Welo said,
     
    “…We’ve made several cuts over the last 4 years…”

    “…It was like all of a sudden you woke up and it was like a bad train coming down…”

    “…Like I said earlier, we’re cutting into the bone now…”
     


    “…Our plan is working…”

    It's time to belly up to the bar and make the necessary budget cuts to avoid a tax grab.

    The Council Prez and Law Director are thugs.

    Maybe we could lay off all the police and have these two goons beat up anyone they don't like.
