Commissioner Javier Souto has gone off the deep end. By Geniusofdespair

He has to bother the Mayor with this piddly shit? He is what you call a pot hole commissioner, focused on the little stuff without a clue on the rest:

Re: Municipal Service Problems Identified in Inspections of District 10
Date: August 6, 2009


The problems below were found in my district today during a routine inspection of residential neighborhoods. These are all problems with municipal services in the Unincorporated Areas which comprise my district (District 10), which impact the quality of life of the taxpayers. Although I am the “policy maker” or “legislator,” I am forced to do the work of administrators who won’t leave their desks to drive through the community to make sure the services are reaching the clients (taxpayers). If I can’t get the Administrators responsible for oversight of municipal services to inspect the residential neighborhoods, which are paying extremely high property taxes, they will fall into neglect as you can see below from just my personal inspection of a few city blocks. I will continue to forward these inspection reports directly to you. I hope that at least, since I am doing half the work myself for a salary that amounts to pennies per hour, you can get the Administration to resolve these issues as quickly as possible on behalf of these neighbors and taxpayers.

I thank you in advance for your kind assistance with all of these issues. (Now you all have to hit read more to see his list...)
