bad business and management

What are the chances that those who are NOT concerned that 13,000 residents pay taxes so that a half dozen or so kids can swim, are the parents of those kids? or affiliated with the private MDAC swim team we somehow support? IF there are NUMEROUS organizations and individuals who utilize the pool those revenues should be reflected somewhere. Where is that revenue reflected? Where is the revenues from last weekends meet reflected? Is a Freedom of Information request necessary? What are the chances this closing the pool issue could be put on the ballot with the annexation issue? Let the people vote. Losing hundreds of thousands of tax dollars to indulge a few is just bad business, and bad management, especially in an ever-deepening recession. Its a luxury we can no longer afford. To lose those hundreds of thousands of our tax dollars so that a private organization can profit, is HIGHLY questionable at the very least! WE are losing money while they profit? Incredibly poor management of our tax dollars, at the very least. At worst.... well, you decide if it sounds like corruption and/or kickbacks for yourself.

pool issues

Are we saying that NOBODY knows what the income of the pool is OR the expenses? and where that income specifically originates and details of where the expenses go? That SHOULD be a simple Freedom of Information request, right? Gym COLLECTS the fees and sets the rates? Did he bother to charge the scuba guy OR the polo team? if not, why not? We are losing over 300k a year and he wonders WHY? Incredible. Ridiculous. Absurd. Residents pay so that NON-residents can play free. More poor oversight and mismanagement. WHEN will this series of continuous and repeated fiscal fiascos stop? Ever?
