The Martin Chronicles wonders what the current-highly-overpaid-by-the-taxpayers-of-Villa -Hills-City Administrator/City Clerk can possibly be thinking. Sure, we live in a free country. But the vast majority of reasonable people generally exercise better judgment when they should surely know that they are skating on very thin ice with their employer.
So, why is the current-highly-overpaid-by-the-taxpayers-of-Villa-Hills-City Administrator/City Clerk continuing to use a well-known unlicensed handyman (we'll call the unlicensed handyman "Mister 18%") to do "home improvement" work? It doesn't make good sense. What in the wide, wide world of sports going on?
Perhaps the happily-oblivious, newly-elected, septuagenarian mayor of Villa Hills is simply blissfully ignorant. Maybe the new City Council is unaware of the ongoing connection between the-highly-overpaid-by-the-taxpayers-of-Villa-Hills-City Administrator/City Clerk's ongoing connection with Mister 18%. Could it be that Mister 18% is just fixing his typical, "shoddy-at-best" screw-ups he made at the-highly-overpaid-by-the-taxpayers-of-Villa-Hills-home? We don't know.
The Martin Chronicles has not formed an opinion about the ongoing connection between the-highly-overpaid-by-the-taxpayers-of-Villa-Hills-City Administrator/City Clerk and Mister 18% just yet. But, many Villa Hills' residents who have had more than enough of Mister 18%'s four miserable years of incompetence and corruption have drawn their own conclusions.
These residents are absolutely convinced that the-highly-overpaid-by-the-taxpayers-of-Villa-Hills-City Administrator/City Clerk is inappropriately funneling sensitive information that has been gleaned from his presence in executive sessions to Mister 18%. Why? Because these residents know that both the-highly-overpaid-by-the-taxpayers-of-Villa-Hills-City Administrator/City Clerk and Mister 18% have a great deal to lose in pending lawsuits against the City of Villa Hills.
Is that possible? Anything is possible. Especially when you are still dealing with a dishonest miscreant like Mister 18% and the inexplicable fools he somehow brought in to his corrupt orbit.
The happily-oblivious, newly-elected, septuagenarian mayor could easily solve this problem. How? He could finish the house-cleaning job the voters elected him to do. Mister 18% is gone(at least for now). The former City Attorney is gone(now wreaking expensive havoc in other cities). It is also well past time for the-highly-overpaid-by-the-taxpayers-of-Villa-Hills-City Administrator/City Clerk to be moved into that same, aforementioned, "gone" category.
Seriously. Think about it for just a moment. The current happily-oblivious, newly-elected, septuagenarian mayor is retired. What the hell else does he have going on? He asked for the job, after all. Besides, this happily-oblivious, newly-elected, septuagenarian mayor once ran the beautiful City of Covington. Couldn't he handle the day-to-day operations of the much smaller city of Villa Hills he was elected to lead last October? Sure he could.
So, why are the taxpayers of Villa Hills paying a vastly overpaid City Administrator/City Clerk to do a job that the current happily-oblivious, newly-elected, septuagenarian mayor could do with ease? And why isn't the current City Council insisting on making that very obvious move?
Your guess is as good as ours.
