THE WEEPINGS OF THE CRY BABY CONTINUE:

I received this shocking e-mail message from Alderman Louis Salvio today which is full of his typical rantings and ravings. I believe that for an elected official to send out a message like this to a member of his community is totally outrageous and completely unprofessional for a member of the Court of Common Council. You be the judge:

Frank:

Don’t know if either of these e-mail addresses is correct but it’s what I have. This will be the only communication you ever get from me from this day forward.

I don’t usually read blogs but I was shown a reprint of one of yours by Adam Platosz at the most recent Council meeting. Frank, you have hit a new low in the daily expressions of your flawed character. Your associations with a Herald reporter and a couple of professional agitators on the Council speak volumes about your petty, puerile persiflage, unsubstantiated claims and lies and your abysmal character.

I will mention only One for which you were totally misinformed, namely the so-called – a terrible misnomer - “Council/City Auditor.” Some things you should know THAT ARE NOT LIES:
1. MIKE TRUEWORTHY AND SUZANNE BIELINSKI ARE NOT THE BOSSES OF ANYTHING OR ANYBODY CONCERNING THE NB COMMON COUNCIL. WHATEVER “POWER” THEY ASSUME DERIVES ERRONEOUSLY FROM THEIR 13 VOTE SUPERMAJORITY.
2. DURING A TWO YEAR HIATUS OF MY TENURE ON THE COUNCIL (2003-05) THEY HIRED A PERSON TO SERVE AS “AUDITOR”, OF WHAT I DON’T KNOW BECAUSE THIS PERSON HAD NO OFFICIAL STANDING IN CITY GOVERNMENT, NONE, NADA, ZILCH. UNDERSTOOD? AT THIS TIME THERE WERE 15 DEMOCRATS ON THE COUNCIL.
3. MIKE AND SUZANNE PREPARED, AMATEURISHLY, THE CONTRACT FOR THIS PERSON’S EMPLOYMENT. THIS WOULD BE A “NO BENEFITS”, PART TIME POSITION –4 HRS./DAY. THEN THEY GO AND GIVE TEN DAYS (ACCUMULATED ANY WAY AT ALL), PAID TIME OFF. NO BENEFITS? REMEMBER THIS FRANK! NOBODY WAS DESIGNATED AS TO HOW “SUPERVISION” OF THIS PERSON WOULD BE HANDLED. THE PERSON WOULD BE PAID TENS OF THOUSANDS OF DOLLARS – YOU CAN LOOK THIS UP YOURSELF , FRANK – OUT OF CITY COFFERS.
4. NOVEMBER 2005, I AM REELECTED TO THE COUNCIL ALONG WITH PETER GOSTIN AND MARK BERNACKI. ALTHOUGH MARK IS THE HIGHEST AT-LARGE VOTE GETTER AND I AM THE HIGHEST VOTE GETTER AMONG DISTRICT CANDIDATES, NEITHER OF US GETS THE NOD FOR MAYOR PRO TEM.
5. OVER THE NEXT 5 MONTHS, I, WITH THE EXPERT HELP OF THE CORPORATION COUNSEL’S OFFICE, CONDUCT AN INVESTIGATION INTO THE POSITION OF COUNCIL AUDITOR. THE AUTHOR WOULD NEVER COOPERATE IN GIVING ME ANY INFORMATION REGARDING ANYTHING RELATED TO THE POSITION – I WOULD ALWAYS BE REFERRED TO TRUEWORTHY ALTHOUGH I TOLD THE PERSON THAT NO ALDERPERSON HAD ANY MORE STANDING OR AUTHORITY THAN ANY OTHER. ( SEE STATEMENT #1 ) I WON’T BORE YOU WITH THE TRUTHFUL DETAILS FRANK BECAUSE YOU ARE NOT INTERESTED IN THE TRUTH, BUT DURING THOSE FIVE MONTHS AND UNDER THE SUPPOSED SUPERVISION OF MIKE AND SUZANNE – AND THIS WAS ALL DOCUMENTED BY THE CC’s OFFICE – THE AUDITOR BILKED THE CITY OUT OF OVER $4000 IN UNAUTHORIZED PAY. ( SEE POINT #3 ). WHEN THE AUDITOR” THOUGHT THE CITY WOULD TRY TO RECOVER THIS MONEY, THE AUDITOR RESIGNED AT A COUNCIL MEETING IN APRIL OF 2006 AND BLAMED EVERYTHING ON LOU SALVIO. REQUEST THE RECORDING OF THE MEETING, FRANK HEAR IT FOR YOURSELF. OF COURSE YOU WON’T DO THAT BECAUSE YOU’D HAVE TO KNOW WHAT A LOW LIFE YOU ARE. THIS IS THE SAME KIND OF BULL YOU THREW AROUND REGARDING THE CDBG FUNDS FIASCO. YOU BLAMED IT ON ME FRANK AND ALL I DID WAS BLOW THE WHISTLE ON THOSE WHO WOULD CHEAT THE GOVERNM ENT OUT OF FUNDS.
6. YOU GO AHEAD AND KEEP POKING FUN AT ME AND THE MAYOR AND KEEP TELLING YOUR LIES WITH YOUR NEW “FRIENDS” AT THE HERALD AND ON THE COUNCIL. I HAVE TOLD YOU BEFORE FRANK, NOBODY OF ANY SUBSTANCE WANTS TO HEAR YOU. SO YOU CREATE A BLOG AND INVITE ALL OF YOUR ANONYMOUS “FRIENDS” TO CONTRIBUTE. AGAIN, YOU ARE PATHETIC!
7. FRANK, DO YOU REMEMBER THE CONNECTICUT WOLVES? REMEMBER WHO ENDURED ALL THE CRICISM OF RIDDING THE CITY OF THAT MULTIMILLION DOLLAR FIASCO? THAT’S RIGHT FRANK, YOURS TRULY. WAS THAT WRONG ALSO? AT THAT TIME THE COST OF THAT FIASCO WAS 1.5 MILLS IN TAXES TO CITY TAXPAYERS. BUT I’M A CRYBABY FRANK, REMEMBER?


FRANK, PLEASE DON’T SEND ANY TYPE OF RESPONSE TO ME EVER. I WON’T READ OR LISTEN TO ANYTHING YOU HAVE TO SAY. OF COURSE YOU’LL PRINT THIS AND GIVE COPIES TO THE HERALD, SHERWOOD AND ANYONE ELSE YOU CALL A “FRIEND.” AND MAYBE ADAM PLATOSZ WILL HELP YOU!
