These three memos corroborate what Bethlehem City Council member jean belinski claims in the post above: (1) a 12/29/09 memo from Bethlehem City Council member Jean Belinski, asking City Council Solicitor Chris Spadoni concerning Council's options; (2) a 12/8/09 memo from Business Administrator Dennis Reichard to City Council member Joe Leeson, acknowledging spending $335,643 in violation of an Ordinance requiring City Council pre-approval. "[M]o member of Council reminded the Administration there was an ordinance ... ."; and (3) a 12/8/09 memo from Business Administrator Dennis Reichard to City Council member Joe Leeson, acknowledging dipping into the treasurer's escrow fund for $2 million more than the $1.8 million authorized by City Council. Because the City paid this sum back, "the Administration feels it did not violate any Ordinance."

You own views are appreciated, especially if they differ from mine. But remember, commenting is a privilege, not a right. I will delete personal attacks or off-topic remarks at my discretion. Comments that play into the tribalism that has consumed this nation will be declined. So will comments alleging voter fraud unless backed up by concrete evidence. If you attack someone personally, I expect you to identify yourself. I will delete criticisms of my comment policy, vulgarities, cut-and-paste jobs from other sources and any suggestion of violence towards anyone. I will also delete sweeping generalizations about mainstream parties or ideologies, i.e. identity politics. My decisions on these matters are made on a case by case basis, and may be affected by my mood that day, my access to the blog at the time the comment was made or other information that isn’t readily apparent.
So now what Belinski..What are you going to do about it. Ooops, Schweder's gone and you might have to think for yourself...Good luck on that!
