Wasteful spending by public officials is never a good idea, but it's really a crime when it happens as revenues are plummeting.
Did you know that the Village of Lisle is proposing to pay out $244,000 to (10) employees as incentives to get them them to quit? Add that $244,000 to the obscene "legal fees" paid to Ancel Glink, and you have more than $600,000 of wasteful spending (not that this is the only waste endorsed by trustees Cawiezel, Boyle and Young -- it's just the most recent).
This kind of waste will continue, and your property taxes will continue being raised every year regardless of the economic environment, as long as trustees Cawiezel, Boyle and Young remain on the Village Board. Every vote for Cawiezel, Boyle or Young is a vote to continue waste and raise property taxes.
For years people in the private sector have been suffering layoffs. Some people have been out of work for two years. And Lisle wants to hand over 244,000 dollars to ten people?? Are you kidding me!!?
ReplyDeleteLayoff the slackers just like businesses do!
How do you know that ten employees referenced above are "slackers"? If you have evidence to share I would be interested so that I can draw a fair conclusion. Just asking...
ReplyDeleteWe have no idea who took the 244000!! that's the point. Lisle should have laid off the slackers and not paid people to quit.
ReplyDeleteGood luck finding out who took the money on their way out the door.
