Is Munson pulling a fast one in his final days?

King Dave wants to make sure his dictatorship stays in place long after he is gone

It seems lately Munson is making a lot of board appointments, prematurely that is. If you fast forward towards the last item you will see that councilor Staggers objects to the appointments, and the rest of our fine rubber stamp leaders seem annoyed. Word on the street is that a lot of these appointments shouldn’t be done until the next mayor walks into office, but it seems Munson is trying to stack the deck against the next mayor. He even appointed one person on the ethics committee to a 5 year term even though they are only supposed to serve 4 years. Many departments are also trying to sidestep the council and administer their own rules. This is disheartening, but not surprising. I have often said that Munson is crooked. He got busted twice breaking city ordinances and everyone looked the other way. I look at it, like I looked at GW’s presidency, we must learn from the mistakes.

As I warned, there is going to be a lot these type of shananigans going on before King Dave leaves office
