THAT IS WHY I SAID GET RID OF MICKEY AND MINNIE AND KEEP CLOWN I MEAN CLOUD. HE SEEMS TO BE RUNNING THIS TOWN. IN A VERY SHORT TIME HE WILL BE THE MAN.
Dear Folks, Looks like what I had heard before Thanksgiving as a done deal really was a done deal...in the words of Gomer Pyle, surpriiiiize, surpriiiiize!!! Since the rumor was true that the outsourcing was already decided, corruption exists within our current council and/or city management. I think it is time for a number of us to go up to Jacksonville and speak (in person) with the state AG. CCoPC have given us plenty of documentation to present and make our case. If Lisa is available she makes and excellent representative, also anyone connected with this blog would be a wealth of information. Had I not had surgery Monday I would have been at Monday's meeting, but I was thinking of you folks. Peeved in Polk, Texas
I was not at the meeting last night, but sounds like Attorney Cloud is taking over. How can an unelected person do this? Can we not go to the state and bring this up. I thought the City is suppose to be run by elected officials. We did not elect him!!!! Another point is how can the other 3 members of the Council hold their heads up. They are really starting to look like fools. They are just pons. go along with the Big Three, Lacasca, Block and Cloud. Wish I never heard of Polk City.
Tom Cloud is educating the Manager & Mayor in an on-going process. Remember, these two have had NO EXPERIENCE, NONE....in running a city, and they have no intent in hiring a city manager who does. They don't want to give up the power they now have.
I DON'T CARE, WE DID NOT VOTE TOM CLOUD IN AS AN EDUCATOR. IF THEY DON'T KNOW HOW TO RUN A GOVERNMENTAL JOB THEN RE-SIGN. THAT IS THE SORRIEST EXCUSE I HAVE HEARD. STATEMENTS LIKE THAT MAKE POLK CITY LOOK REAL GOOD. WHAT ARE YOU THINKING.
My point, exactly. This is a very sorry state of affair that we are stuck with, and it's high time that we all stand up and do something about it. How long are we going to tolerate this????
WHERE DO WE GET FUNDS TO PURSUE AN ATTORNEY? PEOPLE WILL TALK A HIGH NOTE UNTIL FINANCES START. MAYBE WE NEED TO MEET AT THE PARK ON A DESIGNATED DAY AND PUT OUR HEADS TOGETHER. WHAT HAPPENED TO THE PERSON THAT WROTE IN THAT WAS GOING TO DISCUSS THIS WITH AN ATTORNEY FRIEND OVER THANKSGIVING. WE ARE ALL TALKING BUT NOTHING SEEMS TO BE GOING ANYWHERE.
The way I see it, Tom Cloud pushed this outsourcing of utilities. The savings to the city can then guarantee Tom Cloud more money for litigation against the County. Either way, the City will still be broke!!
I was not happy the way Lisa and Kelly were treated by the COUNCIL. Also when does the city attorney have so much input at running the meeting.
