She really is spineless. If there's a close vote on the Council, you know where the interested parties will be applying pressure.

Freiberg will lose reelection because of this crap. I voted for her last time, and she will not be receiving my vote this time.

Same here.

This is like someone beating, robbing, and raping a woman, then thanking her for the good loving on the way out.

Also, isn't thanking the taxpayers leaving out the people who actually vote for all the new taxes?

This is like robbing someone then sending them a thank you note for the new jewelry you bought yourself with their money (As well as the thank you note).

She has no backbone and should lose. It's BS that she capitulates to Tarsha and the mayor. Be gone.


Freiberg is a completely spineless piece of shite. I remember a few posters here emailed her following her vote in favor of COA and she responded with some non-answer BS. frick her.

It's only a matter of time until Tarsha and/or Broome reappear. They're overdue for a scandal.

Has anyone seen a friend or relative actually receive a meal from the COA? Are these people really just handing out cash to their friends and calling it meals ?

This is what you're greeted with after clicking the "thank you taxpayers/meals roll out" banner on their website

You can't make this shite up

i'd put everything i own on the fact we won't make it to 2019 before COA and Tarsha are in the news again for some shady use of tax payer money.

All the extra funding they have now? No way in hell it's all going to MOW or the seniors. And I know they all got raises and Tarsha is probably in the process of buying a new house and a 2018 Escalade. No surprises there. I'm talking about gross tax payer money mismanagement, i bet it would be as easy as flipping to a random page of their books or reading just 100 emails of Tarsha's to find.

We need a mole in the COA. Unfortunately I don't think any of us have the right amount of melanin and we're all probably overly qualified for any job over there

Following the publication of this story, however, COA board member and State Rep. C. Denise Marcelle returned the call and said the agency bought the ad to explain to the public know how its tax dollars are being spent.


quote:

This is an opportunity to say, ‘Here is what we are doing and this is how we’re spending the first bit of money—$2.2 million of the taxpayers’ money,'” Marcelle says. “Often we don’t let the public know the good we are doing. I think this is a good use of funds.”


What an idiot
