HOW DO I GET THEIR TRAVEL PLAN?

Lynn-area legislators amass thousands in travel reimbursements


Let's take a look at this. So LYNN-AREA Legislators get $10 a day IF they ask for it for travel reimbursement to BOSTON. So the MOST they could get is around $300 a month if they drove to work EVERY DAY. Clearly they do not and the numbers back this up.


BUT....,


our top LPS administrators get a $350 a month car allowance 12 months out of the year. Let's see by my math that's $4,200 a year. You know I'm not good with numbers but clearly they are. Since NO LYNN LEGISLATOR gets thousands and clearly some LPS people do who happen to be CITY employees maybe the ITEM is shining the light on the WRONG people!

PENNIES FROM HEAVEN

In this case we are talking dollars and we should be careful that it doesn't go up in smoke through holes in the roof of city hall. Since damage once done can never fully be repaired especially to our environment, I would propose that we specifically dedicate it to a project that would invest in and enhance our environment.

The danger of "no strings attached" windfalls is that there is a tendency to waste it on purchases you will regret later. Just ask some former lottery winners.

One idea would be some sort of plan would be direct the money to LYNN WOODS, a jewel LYNN has a right to be PROUD of.

PROGRESS AT ANY PRICE?

Crighton wants Athanases to face Lynn City Council

It is interesting how there is such concern about groundwater here yet it seems to be more interest in the benefits that developing this place could bring to downtown. Progress is means prosperity but are we prepared to pay the price?

Lynn has a history of looking past environmental concerns at any costs. Look at how it has been handled in the schools. Levels of lead at almost every school, using indicted contractors, the mold mix-up at DREWICZ, and along with questionable cancers, miscarriages, and respiratory illnesses raising concerns at that same location.

HYPOCRISY LIVES!

Lynn council shows its support for Logan workers

I am GLAD to see the LYNN CITY COUNCIL take a stand in support of some 180 workers that are suffering under a failed system. `I hope it starts a precedent.

BUT......,

it is kind of funny, when I tried to go before them just to "announce" my intention of circulating a petition on behalf of 14,000 children I was ignored.  Not only did I NOT get a resolution, a few of the councilors told me while they supported my cause they couldn't sign my petition. "YOU UNDERSTAND". Yes, yes I do understand.

CONSERVATIVE CONSPIRACY OR LIBERAL LITANY

Here is some useless information gleamed from the goings on at the LYNN CITY COUNCIL and LYNN SCHOOL COMMITTEE. There is a distinct difference on points of procedure.

At the COUNCIL the "moment of silence" is taken BEFORE "the pledge of allegiance" whereas at COMMITTEE meetings the order is reversed. Some sort of political indoctrination? Probably not.

IS IT "WHAT WE KNOW" OR "WHO WE KNOW"?
