I know little about plumbing and I am not making accusations, but I am curious. John Christensen, city of Racine plumbing inspector, owns Christensen and Associates, Racine, plumbing consulting. What is plumbing consulting? The company is not listed in the Racine Yellow Pages under plumbing, so I assume it's not doing work that Mr. Christensen would sign off on in his official capacity as the city's plumbing inspector. Is that correct?
ReplyDeleteRay DeHan - Teamster Pension seems to be a more appropriate terminology.
ReplyDeleteMozol doesn't have to list anything? What's the purpose of this then??
ReplyDeleteNo wonder why Becker is so worried about putting up a police house and security cameras near/around St. Cats. Sounds self serving to me. Typical.
ReplyDeleteThe mayor is putting cameras up around St. Cats, among other locations, because a whole lot of people who pay a whole lot of taxes send our kids there, and we deserve to have them protected from the thugs that run in that neighborhood, who, by the way pay little or no taxes, like most of the people who live in that neighborhood.
ReplyDeleteI wonder how many of these elected officals are getting an income under the table.

ReplyDeleteDon't send your darlings to St. Cats if your so afraid. Tell St. Cats to move west of the I then. Who needs them in the city if they need to be pampered?? Alot of schools in this crime ridden city would like cameras for protection. It's OK for your kids to get to know black people, it really is.
