Here is some more interesting information I learned last night, and was able to confirm this morning. It seems that the Skeletons in Harran's closet are really slipping out, and pretty soon, the door is going to burst open, and it will make Pandora's Box look like a musical toy.
One of our fire companies had a fire company official take over $1,000.00 from fire company funds to pay off a gambling debt. Is that fire company being harassed by the Director of Public Safety? NO. Is there an investigation into this fire company by the Director of Public Safety? NO. Is this one of the fire companies that would benefit from pooling the Relief Association money in the township? YES.
Is the Director of Public Safety conducting an investigation into the township training center? Even though we spent over $5,000,000.00 for the facility and it limits the amount of training the firefighters can perform there? NO. What about the fact that the Director of Public Safety knew about the facility being built in the lower end of the County which would be free and cost the township nothing? Is the Mayor and the Council investigating that? NO.
Does anyone else find it odd that the paid daytime firefighters which were established to support the volunteer firefighters are now requiring the volunteer firefighters to financially support them? The Mayor admitted at a council meeting that he didn't know that the SAFER grant submitted in 2008 needed to take away funding from the volunteer firefighters to pay for it. The Mayor then admitted that he didn't know about the need to take money away from the volunteer fire companies until 2010! This is more than a year after the township received the grant. Is there an investigation into this lack of planning? NO.
Does anyone find it odd that the township police department has over 15 unmarked "take home" vehicles? We understand the marked police vehicles being an added deterrent to crime. Other than free gas and transportation, what do the unmarked take home vehicles do to deter crime?
How about the "transfer of land" between the township and the head of Public Works? Anyone see a problem with that? Is there an investigation into this land transfer? NO.
The township has ANOTHER MULTI-MILLION DOLLAR DEFICIT, is anyone in the township government coming up with any ideas to address this deficit? NO. Instead, the township government continues to ignore the public and refuse to provide answers to the community. We are facing another severe deficit, so what are we to expect from our local officials? We believe we will hear more of the "we are the best township" speeches to confuse the public and ignore the problem.
What about the fact the Director of Public Safety permitted the Bensalem EMS to remove the ambulance from the Cornwells Fire Company and put in the Newport Fire Company substation on Bensalem Bl.? Is there an investigation into that?
We will be reaching out to our friends in the Union Fire Company this week. We intend to find out about the whole "refused to give water to the paid fire company" incident. We also want to hear from them about why their fire company was shut down. It is amazing that we have heard nothing about the "dangerous activities to the public and fire service". It appears from the history of the Director of Public Safety that he can make false and unfunded accusations without any evidence, without any consequences. Is there an investigation into the conduct of the Director of Public Safety's conduct by the township? NO.
I happen to know the name of the fire official who did this, and fire company that will benefit from this "pooling" of the township's relief association money. Out of compassion, I won't say who they are, YET. Rest assured, if I need to, I WILL!!
QUIT HIDING THE TRUTH, FREDDIE!!
