| It is okay to have guards Mayor Lucie Tondreau: Because the Ethics Department says so. |
Speaking of cops, a reader sent me these photos from the police department training facility at 9601 NW 58 St. in Doral. This appears to be construction material bought by the Miami-Dade Police Department and paid for by taxpayers. This expensive construction material appears to be abandoned. This is a waste of taxpayers money if all the stuff is going to do is rot. What is the scoop? Build it or pay back the taxpayers!

The entire ethics department should be fired. I'm so tired of them. They are more ethically challenged then those who they supposedly investigate. I want a full financial accounting of this too.
I guess I should get in line and wait with the rest of the taxpayers getting screwed on a daily basis.

As someone keeps posting because I'm sick of these political hacks wasting our money, enriching themselves, acting like royalty and traveling out of the area on our dime.
WE ARE NOT YOUR SERVANTS AND WE ARE SICK OF THIS STUFF!
I'm sure some enterprising employee will sell the metal to a scrap yard.
This waste is nothing new at MDPD. This the result of hiring unqualified individuals to management positions based on their polical connections. This county is run by a discredited mayor and State Attorney. The Ethics Commission has no teeth.
wouldnt it be great if the cities had to publish line item after line item of their expenses -- including body guards and scrap metal -- so their is full transparency and accountabilty? then we could follow the money and make sure no friends-of-friends insider deals were going on too. It would keep everyone informed and above board -- when there is a witness it usually does.
Let'em Go Joe Centorino strikes again. Is our ethics director corrupt or just incompetent?
How do we know if the Ethics Commission has any teeth if they never find anyone in violation? I would rather they didn't investigate at all than validate the unethical conduct of crooked politicians. Centorino and his idiot sidekick Murawski are an embarrassment.
Lucy Tondreau? Doesn't she live in Broward County?
It looks like the piles came from a planned and previously begun project, that got stifled after the Mayor started screwing with the budget.
After the materials are delivered you are stuck with them, even if you don't build it because the budget snuffed the project.
you know there is also the issue of the taxpayers not speaking up, the citizens.... where is that outrage or just participation. good idea if they were shown the budgets to see all the money spent on all sorts of stuff and chauffeurs and all of that. yes we need oversight of ethics board but what about tax payer outrage (similar to the first poster above). i guess when people dont even go to the ballot box cant say that type of speaking up will happen.... but one can hope!
It was a federal grant that paid for the construction material
Haitians in N. Miami turned down the $15 MIl Bond Referendum that would have been used to expand MOCA. No art wanted in that town.
re: the bond above. Welp, no art... just bodyguards and police chauffeurs and trips to Haiti... maybe actually they should put those options on the ballot too and see if they would be voted for.
Lucie is the woman caught bragging on tape, right?
