cant afford him

Is there anybody who would say that the City manager has ANY clue about construction, in view of the recent series of exorbitant disasters at the CC and the bathrooms? That is one area we can agree on, that he should not be involved in because, when he is involved, WE get hosed, BIG TIME, and left with VERY expensive bills to pay. He is not a General Contractor and apparently has little, if any, construction experience, so putting him in charge was a LOUSY idea in the first place. He apparently refuses to use Skip Reed, who IS a General Contractor, in making these construction decisions. Whether that refusal is a sign of stupidity, arrogance, lack of caring, or hubris (or some of all) each person has to decide for themselves. HUNDREDS of thousands of dollars down the drain later, we have finally come to that conclusion clearly. We CANT afford for him to do any more construction projects. He should excuse himself and defer to a competent, experienced, honest, preferably local, professional. There are plenty of problems at the Building Dept, the pool, the bathrooms, the City website, the Finance Dept, and Public Works to keep him occupied.
