The meeting tonight is at 6:00pm in case some people, like myself, didn't know that it was not the 7:00pm start time.

| J Marchese & Sons and GTA landscaping deserve a round of applauds for having their lawyers go to the meeting tonight and let it be known that they are not going to stand for this. |

Yes Lynda, they did a great job.
I was very disappointed with the low turnout. I was hoping for a BIG crowd to see & hear, first hand, that lying sack of sh*t who is currently our mayor. I don't know how the man can hold his head up........... |

He really looked rediculous last night. When he actually showed up he appeared to have no idea what had been going on all night. He had no answers for anything. And the audit cost 45,000 not 60,000 so where is that 15,000 ?

And don't forget, Sally, Hanlon had previously stated (and I think he said it again last night) that the city had already paid $27,000 towards the audit before he asked for the $60K -- so it's more than $15K that's in question.

| He looked like the incompetent boob that he is. Sally, you are absolutely correct, he could not answer any questions. It appears that others were the driving force around this, namely J. Vetrano. Imagine she told M&H what Vendors to check, that's probably because she knew which paperwork was destroyed by this crew. |

Thats right Citizen, I had forgotten about that! So where is the 42,000?? My god I cannot even believe what I witnessed last night. And for Dragone to insist that GTA and Marchese are not owed an apology is crazy. If I did not live here and had not been witnessing all of this mess I would not believe it. Chelsea is looking good to me right now.

| I just can't believe how many peoples reputations get destroyed in this city on hear says from others that NEVER materialize into anything. Something needs to be done to put a stop to this. If it means the City getting sued, than I am sorry, but, so be it. Enough is Enough. |

| Whoever had a hand in the Mayor's presentation should be sued and whoever called the news media. The $5 million number seems to be made up out of the air. |

| Actually the Mayor had that $5 million number written on a presentation board. Since he is, as he stated, the only one to have seen the Audit, he must have made that presentation board himself. In which makes him be the $5 million dollar culprit. |

He really is dumb as a rock. He makes this big presentation and then last night all he does is contradict himself. It is sort of bizarre. He doe snot seem to know what is going on, almost like he needs someone to tell him what to say.

| I am really thinking he has dementia or something along those lines. I wouldn't even mind if he went out on a medical leave until his term is up. I just want him gone and gone now. |

I just read this on The Mirror, The person is talking about Hanlon.
"I thought he was going to take a stroke up there. I think I heard him say he had to attend a wake. Uh HELLO you in your position if you were not the one laying out in the coffin you should have been at that meeting and nowhere else. I would love to be a fly on the wall when he watches the tape of the meeting well he was gone." Anonymous | 05.01.07 - 10:37 am | # |

| I thought it was very strange or convienent as the case may be that the budget director, the driving force behind the audit wasn't there to answer any questions. She lied about vendors not being the target of her I mean the audit. Hanlon said he was going to question her today, do you think she will be suspended? |

They got "away" with it because there was no evidence. I voted for Hanlon and have no reason to stick up for Ragucci. Hanlon was the city clerk. Didn't he have some responsibility over the records in his office? The mess is a made up one by Vetrano. Were did all the documents go? My guess is they conveniently dissapeared.
