Just in time for Tuesday's Yorktown election

RUMOR HAS IT….
ACCORDING TO MY SOURCES

:Just in time for next weeks election:

In the first weeks of January 09, the new Yorktown board headed by newly elected Supervisor Siegel voted to de-consolidate Yorktown’s highly successful attempt at consolidation initiated by acting Supervisor Alice Roker and removed Highway Superintendent Eric DiBartolo as Director of Labor Relations (a title to accommodate his lack of an engineering degree, proving you don’t need a piece of paper to get the job done in a cost effective manor) and instead at greater cost installed David Rambo as Provisional Water Superintendent.

Now according to my sources, Supervisor Siegel wishes to install Mr. Rambo as head of the Department of Environmental Conservation along with being Provisional Water Superintendent with a bump in pay of around
$20,000.00 a year. To do this she is trying to buy out the present Department of Environmental Conservation head with a lifetime of town taxpayer paid medical benefits. As with all jobs that serve at the pleasure of elected officials, it is only a good idea if you can place your people there. Where this proposed idea at consolidations fails as compared to the last time it was tried, it leaves out Parks and Recreation and the Highway Department, Sewer and Building Maintenance. Plus Mr. Rambo will be provided with a new car.

It also seem that to get to the desired place of 2% tax cap in the Supervisors latest budget, she guts the highway paving funds and drainage repair funds. She also eliminates a position in the Water Department presently employed by an 18 year employee who had no idea they were retiring until notified by the Supervisor. Also gutted, all part time help in Highway Department, and all side walk repairs. Is there a vendetta?

Since Mr. Rambo has headed the Water department, over time has increaded over 46%.

Also in this time of belt tightening, the entire board voted to spend 4 million dollars on new electric meters. So much for fiscal austerity. It seem other municipalities have tried them and they do not work and uninstalled them.
