Govt accountability? Guess that means Delores, Smith and JOHNSON are disqualified with the voters..
Some people are sooooooo picky. Vote
accountability is the opposite of what brewer did with those bids for housing contracts.
I am completely and totally confused! Delores submits a bid to an agency that has NO ties to City and is raked over the coals as if she robbed the vault. Hell, she did even win. Meanwhile our City council appoints friends, relatives, and lovers as lawyers, consultants, etc. and all are silent??? Check the Home Rule Charter, check the Housing Authority’s charter the only connection is the sharing of the names Alexandria. The AHA is not a budgeted item in the City’s annual budget. Diversionary attacks are the craft of a good warrior. Be careful not ot call in the trap.
Don’t you mean Home Room Charter? Anybody up for a drink? Meet up at the bar owned by dat lady.
Delores Supporter,
Nice try. The AHA has nothing to do with the City of Alexandria EXCEPT that the mayor appoints most of the board members.
Who did Delores work for when she submitted her proposal? The mayor!
That may be true but she submitted her proposal as part of an OPEN, COMPETITIVE process. Who won, oh let me think, ah yes, now it comes to me: THE WIFE OF THE CITY ATTORNEY maybe.
Irregardless of who appoints whom, or who sits on what board the point is it was a BID which means it was an above board, publicly advertised process.
If your conspiracry theory of political cronism where true, the the board appointed by the Mayour would have awarded it to her even though she was not the low bid.
Take an honest look at the candidates: who do you want to run our $150 million business??
regardless, not irregardless
“…cronism where true, the the board appointed by the Mayour…”
should read as follows:
“…cronyism were true, the board appointed by the mayor…”
If AHA has nothing to do with it then WHY did Delores Jump at the chance to call the legislative auditor on Kelvin ??? Either stupid or uninformed or both. Either way…..shes an Insider….dont vote for insiders THIS time
Yea, let’s vote for an outsider like Sams, Roy, Hammond, or Fuller.
You put Fuller’s name in the list and you want accountability????
In the caption photos, I find it interesting that three of the four appear to be talking. I remember an adage ” Two ears, one mouth, wise ones listen twice as much as they talk.”
