Mayor O'Brien's freeze on hiring turns out to be nothing but a false promise to the Electorate.

After citing this edict he just turned around and hired a secretary and a communications director.

Now he is proposing hiring and independent Auditor and requesting that the common council to sign on with his request.

Who will this mayor hire next?

The major question being asked by the citizens is why did the Mayor add to his office annual budget an additional $180,000?

Frank: I submitted the comment quoted below yesterday nut I feel it's worth repeating here.

"Salvio Attacks O'Brien's Announcement of Hiring an Independent Auditor With Past History
In this article what the Herald fails to do is to ask for information from anyone else that was in office on the Council when the previous "independent auditor" was hired and then resigned. All comments came from Dems.
In her farewell "rant" at a Council meeting the "Auditor" blamed me for her having to leave. Yes, I exposed the fact that she submitted incorrect time worked reports that resulted in her being overpaid by the city to the tune of over $4000. She resigned probably because she might have been made to pay back the money.
She was hired by Trueworthy and Bielinski who wrote her contract - City Officials wanted nothing to do with it. She answered to nobody and chose her own work hours.
As for Trueworthy's claim that she saved the city $375 K, that is pure hogwash!
And what about O'Brien's hiring freeze? That's hogwash too; look at page 2 of O'Brien's Budget document; Items 2,3 and 4 show increases of $60K each.
I saved all the documentation that I had re this "auditor" and I won't be muzzled by Sherwod.
I won't even attempt to tell O'Brien where to find the information because he might have the city hall computers locked up. The Herald must have had to ask permission for this article to be written.

Can't wait to see my tax bill in July! "

Through, FOI can someone find out why the additional money was added? Can we get a copy of the ledger showing this from finance or can we get any one of the four newspapers floating around town to do so and quick?
