The Martin Chronicles is wondering exactly why Villa Hills malfeasant Mayor Mike Martin WASTED YOUR TAX DOLLARS sending certain council members to the Kentucky League of Cities (KLC) training for newly elected officials. One of the newly-minted council people evidently took the training seriously. Two others, not so much.
We suspect that the KLC training and the multi-night stays at the Embassy Suites-interestingly for the two councilmembers who didn't seem to take the training seriously- COST A WHOLE LOT MORE THAN THE $250 THAT THE MALADJUSTED MAYOR MIKE MARTIN SAID THE OPEN RECORDS AND RECORD RETENTION TRAINING COST. You remember, don't you? Shorty promised to get his nincompoop interim City Clerk some training, but then says he changed his mind when he said "it cost $250." A lame excuse offered up by a lame-brain.
We've already reported that HBM-I did her absolute best Foster Brooks impression while attending the party held in the Embassy Suites Manager's party room. That's mostly just an embarrassment. The only thing really wasted there were countless thousands more of Holly Boo Boo's brain cells. Evidently nothing new.
It became a WASTE OF YOUR TAXPAYER MONEY when HBM-I showed up two hours late for the already-paid-for-with-your-tax-dollars KLC training the next day. This after YOU PAID for HBM-I's room at The Embassy Suites the night before.
So what classes did HBM-I miss THAT YOU ALREADY PAID FOR? She missed important classes on RISK ASSESSMENT and ETHICS. Given all of the current and pending lawsuits and the mendacious Martin's problems of misconduct and neglect of duty in Villa Hills City government these past twenty-five months HBM-I definitely should have been there. We can only guess why she was so late. And so can you.
Oh, it get's better. Rookie Councilmember Brian R. Wischer was also at the TAXPAYER FUNDED TRAINING in Lexington. At least he was registered. It's the darndest thing. Yes, HBM-I was two hours late. BUT BRIAN R. WISCHER DIDN'T SHOW UP ON THE LAST DAY AT ALL.
Yes, indeed. The hillbilly voters of Villa Hills ARE GETTING EXACTLY WHAT THEY VOTED FOR. How do we know that? Because mental-case Mayor Mike Martin told us so. What about the rest of us? Well, we're going to have to wait the 652 days until November 4, 2014. Then maybe-just maybe-enough people will have finally figured out they are being lied to time and time and time and time and time again. The Martin Chronicles is not holding its collective breath.
