Things the King (Joey D) and his court (The Republican Majority Council) have done that make you go hm-m-m-m-m
The purchase of land on Haunted lane at State road for open space. The
interesting part of this purchase is that it is wet land that could not
have been developed anyway. To make it more interesting, the land was
owned by the in laws of a former Republican Councilman.
The use of
$5,000,000.00 for the improvement of the intersection of Galloway road
and Mechanicsville road (state roadways) to make the Mayors ride home
from work easier. Out of all the state road intersections in the
township that need improvement,
THIS is the one that we spent township
dollars on? Is the King truly trying to tell us, this was the
intersection that needed the immediate attention of the township? There
was no other state road intersection that needed more attention from
the township?
Thousands of dollars of fines issued by the Fire
Marshals office for code violations that were suddenly withdrawn. A member of
the Fire Marshall's staff told a member of the community that the order
came from "down the hall" referring to the Mayor's office instructions
to withdraw the citations.
Better yet, how about Brady's tavern being shut down by License
and Inspection as well as the Fire Marshals office for code violations.
The shut down was lifted within several hours after an order was sent
from "down the hall" to the Fire Marshal and the head of License and
Inspection to re-open the bar!
How about the $771,000.00 settlement to former Township
Administrator McCauley after being involved in his third hit and run in a
township vehicle. The last hit and run was involved Mr. McCauley being
drunk (arrested and convicted) instead of being immediately suspended
for being involved in another hit and run in a township vehicle, he was
allowed to resign and received his severance package!
Even better yet, how about the juicy severance package that Former
Public Safety Director Steve Moran got, in light of the discrimination
complaints against the police department and him! Why the promotion
of Fred Harran to Director of Public Safety after he lied under oath
regarding racial discrimination within the Bensalem Police Department?
How about the refusal of the King to let Former Councilman Allen see the
investigation of racial discrimination within the Bensalem Police
Department before Fred Harran was appointed director of public safety. Better yet, how about him not being allowed to see this information AT ALL??
Explain to the citizens of this town, as to the use of highway funds designated for Bristol pike being used to pave
and add lights to a parking lot behind a current councilman's store
front on Bristol pike. This is the only place off of Bristol pike where
the grant funds were used to repave property not on Bristol pike.
How about the purchase of yet another vehicle for the King. He did say he doesn't
charge us for flights he takes. I didn't know there was a lot of
flying associated with the Mayor of Bensalem's duties. Does anyone know
how much money we have spent since the King became Mayor for his
vehicles?
Try 14 years of having Mr. McCauley and Mr. Cmorey in the
Mayors staff. Since Mr. McCauley got his pay off, they have not needed
to replace him. Why was there a need to have these two positions at
$100,000.00 plus for all those years, now we only need one person? What
did we spend the million dollars for if we only needed one of them?
How about the three mysterious deaths of women dating police officers within the
Bensalem Police department. All of which were declared suicides!! Despite the requests of the family members,
no outside of Bucks county investigations were ever done!!! The last
incident had witnesses that were never interviewed by anyone, even
though the information from the officer dating the victim conflicted
with the information these witnesses possessed.
The threats made by a
member of the police supervisors against a current councilman that he
would expose criminal activity involving this councilman if he didn't
vote to retain the police supervisor. The King knew about it and did
nothing. Why?
What about the victims of golf balls flying onto Hulmeville road and
hitting passing vehicles being told by the township, that the township
was not responsible for the golf balls! The victims had to find out
which golfer hit the balls that struck their vehicles.
I guess we should all be happy they don't have a shooting range there!
Does anyone know what the King and his Court paid for the golf course? Is it still a big secret? Why?
What
about the $5,000,000 eyesore and its new "bride" where Route 1 Street
Rd, and the PA turnpike come together? You all claimed that this was the
best training center in the county, when now that the new Lower Bucks Training Center is
open, the mistakes and omissions for the township center have become painfully
obvious. Why are there no plans or funds to
bring the center up to a minimum fire service training capability? Why did You, Harran and Topley appear on the township channel talking about the needed tax increase for the
rescue squad. They touted the services being offered and a new drug they were
carrying. They said they needed the money to maintain the high level of service
they were supplying to our community. In addition, the rescue squad received over $85,000.00 from Parx because of
the call volume increase. Despite the fact, that the more calls the rescue
squad responds to, the more money they make! So, why is that the rescue squad REDUCED
the number of ambulances it was staffing! Best yet, why do you have up
to 112 police officers, with 63 making over 100K last year, when there has NOT been an increase in call volume in OVER 30 years??
Most of all, "Your Majesty", why is it that you refuse to give any information or admit that there IS a budget deficit with the township??
WE WANT ANSWERS YOUR MAJESTY!!!!
