The problem is, who is going to do something about it? The City Council? Maybe I'll call my Councilwoman and ask her about it.


Let me know if you do. I'm a little "confused" as to whether this "emergency purchase" was really an emergency and if it was why wouldn't the council approve money for the police to function. I've been hearing we have excess police cars though. If it wasn't an emergency then was that legal???

What was the stat? They laid off 50 some odd police officers? That's an easy 8 cars per shift, that they use....SWAG.....used by 8-10 different police officers? Take one car out per week for maintenance and the like...(thinking out loud)....they have to have at least 10 cars left over! We could go out to the lot on Court and count...Smile

Put it this way...there is NO way in Hell that there is a need for 6 brand new vehicles...oh, and one is in the shop now...*eyeroll*

I saw that actually, the other check that you listed on the first post was voided...I think. I have actually a right to get fired up about this one since it breaks the Michigan Constitution. Hasn't been proven so far that the check that was cut is legit.

Don't have much right to get my undies in a knot over the other stuff that goes on in Flint other than to ponder, "Don has a set o' balls the size of Texas." I sure don't like political corruption to the extent that he's practiced...oy.

That is the amount that the City pays to use their facility as a polling place. Besides, the Mayor generally gives $500.00 to $1000.00, not $300.00

146032 1/15/2009 FLINT SOUTHWESTERN ACADEMY $1,000.00

So nice of the Mayor to use our tax dollars to send a few kids to DC... what about the other 12,000 plus kids in the schools?

146035 1/15/2009 MALLORY STREET BLOCK CLUB $250.00

And yet another block club gets a payoff.

Thanks for the info..I would hate to think that someone could have found an emergency item in the register that wasn't really construed as an emergency...whew. Smile
