We just hired an Assist. City Manager (at $1000,000 per year) to take on this kind of thing. Now, only five weeks after she starts her job, we are told we still have to hire a consultant, she can not do it. You have to be joking.
We already have a Master Plan. but It is out of date, but we do have one. Get it out and update it. The process calls for using committees so let them do it and use our new Asst. Manger, G. DiFante as the liaison with City Management, the community and the City Council. This process is also scheduled to last two years, so there is no rush.
The problem is that five City Council members seem to be in Molino's pocket (Hawley, Doeringer, Cipollone, Pacino and Canale -the Jason 5) and will probably approve this waste of money They are the ones who approved spending all the money on hiring an Assist Manager. Now let them explain why she can do this job
If an expert is hired, it had best be a true expert... not just somebody from the Batavia area who has "some experience" in working on some city's master plan.
Richard Hale, no, not metric. She cost us a bit more than $100,000 with her salary of over $75,000 and the cost of her benefits. And with that, we are told we still have to hire an outside consultant to just bring up to date a city plan?
