A shocking exchange took place at a recent Villa Hills council meeting.
Councilman George Bruns asked Mayor Mike Martin why $47.50/hour clerk/bookkeeper Cordelia Schaber didn't have the very important Errors & Omissions insurance that would protect the taxpayers in the event of a Schaber screw-up.
Taking his authority a little too seriously, Martin brushed it off by saying, "That's my decision". Bruns pointed out that the contract signed by Schaber and Martin himself said Schaber SHALL - meaning MUST in legalese - have Errors & Omissions insurance.
Martin's Al Capone-like response? "I'll just have her sign another contract", replied the corner-cutting mayor.
It makes you wonder just how many corners Martin is cutting. Phil Taliaferro has a lot of digging to do.
