As GA perused tonight's meeting agenda, this jumped out at me, Resolution No. 12:
12.* Resolution instituting an investigation by the City Council of the reasons for unpaid Legal Services invoices dated in the CY 2011 (sponsored by Councilman Russo) *Oh, boy. Can you give us a break? As in, We the People who are paying your salary.
Councilman Russo, how's this for an 'investigation': check the DATES on the invoices. So if they were received in 2012, that means the City wasn't billed until the work was complete or the not-to-exceed limit was reached.
Here's an idea of how are legal expenses are disbursed from the 2012 Introduced Budget from Corporation Counsel's Budget presentation last month:
Well, the meeting is about to start...
Can we do an investigation in to how Russo can be so stupid, disingenuous & dishonest?
