When an office holder runs unopposed he or she does not have
to be answerable to the citizens.
When
we stop to think are we electing Commissioners to represent us or is it ‘taxation
without representation’? If we don’t get
anywhere with one Commissioner we are stuck in the mud with no other elected
official able to help us.
Today I was informed by someone in City Hall that there is a
hell of a story developing and once again Skippy Scirocco is in the middle of a
dangerous situation that could pose a threat to city residents. The Department of Health has found high concentrations
of lead in our drinking water. The best
part is that neither Scirocco or anyone in his department will comment to
anyone who calls his office and you can’t find out any information from any
other department, again so much for our representative form of government.
I spoke with many friends today that called
the DPW office and our elected representative would not come to the phone.
There is also information that there are adults at Wesley that
have gotten sick by Saratoga Springs drinking water but we can’t verify this
yet. The meeting between the State &
Scirocco scheduled today was called off and a phone call between the two was
supposed to take place instead.
We all
know that if Scirocco doesn’t have Madigan and 3 other people speaking for him
he will not talk on the phone or in person so I doubt he made the phone call
either.
There will be much more coming out of this and hopefully he
will have to be removed from office.
