Subject: former mayor John Antaramian
Just so you know and do not hear it on the news, the city through a professional services contract has put the former mayor under contract as a consultant.
John will be working with brownfield sites, neighborhood planning and any other revitalization project he can help with.
If you have any questions please give me a call.
Gary Becker
Mayor, City of Racine
Antaramian has been mayor of Kenosha since 1992. He decided not to run for another four-year term this year. Keith Bosman defeated Pat Moran in an April 1 election to replace Antaramian.
How much $$$$ is John making Mr. Becker?
ReplyDeleteMr. Becker, For god sakes, could you PLEASE stop surrounding yourself with people who are doing your job for you? What exactly do we need a Mayor for if we have Administrators, consultants, grant writers, ect.....All on TAXPAYER dollars!!!!! PATHETIC!
ReplyDeleteMight this be a conflict of interest?
ReplyDeleteHow would it be a conflict?
ReplyDeleteMy bad it would not be
ReplyDeleteIs it normal for these sort of decisions to be made without the city council's knowledge?
ReplyDeleteThink King Becker
ReplyDeleteand the City Counsel as the House of Lords.
We Need Q.A to be G Washington
Yes, it is normal. The city hires outside help all the time (attorneys, accountants, etc.) and it does not need council approval except for the professional services budget, which is set once a year.
ReplyDeleteWas there an increase in the professional services budget this year then? What was the amount last year vs. this year? Or is the Kenosha mayor replacing someone?
