[Vision2020] Police Union: Symptom of a much larger problem

To those agape:

>From the Daily News:
"If there's an agenda or list of specific complaints, Moscow Police Chief Dan Weaver said he hasn't heard about them. He said no one even told him his officers had enlisted the services of a labor union. "

The above quote is more evidence that city government in Moscow is calamitously broken.  As I said in another forum:  The city council cannot even be trusted to do the most simple tasks, unsupervised.

If you want to see a far more serious example, read the 'protocols' adopted to attempt to protect the city (but no one else) from the Naylor Farms proposal.  Most literate persons will spot at least three large problems, not including the horrendous, writer-should-be-prevented-from-writing-again-forever, archaic style of the legal language.  Also not included in these three problems is the fact that in the IDWR Preliminary Order, the IDWR did not even make the 'protocols,' as weak as they are, mandatory.  The time to appeal this decision apparently elapsed without the city making a timely objection to the IDWR.

Moscow employs three lawyers (including the city supervisor).  Perhaps if they replaced the three with one honest, competent, conscientious one, they might at least stay even with the game.  And what happened to the "new" city councilpersons who were going to clean things up?  Things look just as dirty or dirtier to me.
