That's why they like this anonymous blog, so no one will know what jerks they are. Get used to the systems as it stands naysayers or stand up and try to change it.

Now riddle me this, Batman: Ward knew he didn't have the votes to get Krawiecki appointed, but announced that he was going to nominate him anyway; and then at the last minute (Krawiecki was in the audience) withdraws his nomination.

He's a Republican, a former Board of Finance member, a former town attorney for Plymouth, and he actually applied for the job (unlike Krawiecki).

The council votes yea or nay. Art is just playing games.</I><BR/><BR/>I realize what the Mayor's role is but the Council is also responsible for making suggestions to the Mayor; therefore they shouldn't vote an appointment down unless they have a viable replacement name that they have proposed to the Mayor. <BR/><BR/>The Council members always bring names to the Mayor for consideration of appointment, no matter what that appointment is. Once a council member brings a name to the Mayor, they discuss the pros and cons of that person in relationship to the appointment they are interested in and it goes from there to the rest of the council for consideration and then eventually to the council floor if there is enough support for the person.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8811616037332448221.post-41170390425725457752008-06-11T21:52:00.000-04:002008-06-11T21:52:00.000-04:00Yes, the Council seems to have their own agenda: t...Yes, the Council seems to have their own agenda: that is what Stortz was up against last term.<BR/><BR/>But aren't Ward and 4 of his colleagues of the same party?<BR/><BR/>Didn't they run as a team?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8811616037332448221.post-80881484664767494262008-06-11T14:10:00.000-04:002008-06-11T14:10:00.000-04:00"The mayor puts names up, NOT the council."...unfo..."The mayor puts names up, NOT the council."<BR/><BR/>...unfortunately, the council has their own agenda and it's definitely not in the community's best interest.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8811616037332448221.post-40466487594402117852008-06-11T11:41:00.000-04:002008-06-11T11:41:00.000-04:0010:07The mayor puts names up, NOT the council.The ...10:07<BR/><BR/>The mayor puts names up, NOT the council.<BR/><BR/>The council votes yea or nay.<BR/><BR/>Art is just playing games.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8811616037332448221.post-73829265915334874012008-06-11T10:33:00.000-04:002008-06-11T10:33:00.000-04:00"Art Ward has been shaking under his desk, practic..."Art Ward has been shaking under his desk, practically in a fetal position, since Krawiecki left City Hall the first time.
