SURPRISE, SURPRISE!! As usual, the people of this town want answers to this matter, but His Majesty and the republican court (Council) REFUSE to answer!! If they respond it’s with lies and double talk, which is even more ridiculous. How about being honest for once Your Majesty, and admit that you and your puppet court have been mishandling OUR $$$!! Quit the fear tactics you were using last night on how you refuse to ‘lay off cops’ when that is NOT the issue and you know it. How about dealing with these VALID issues concerning the township and its budget, especially in these particular areas:
Why is the Director of Public Safety increasing numbers to justify an oversized police department? The calls for service for the Bensalem Police Department have not risen significantly for more than 30 years! Furthermore, why are the numbers of police officers assigned to the patrol division, the same as it was in 1976! Why do we have more supervisors and more ‘special units’ and personnel assigned outside the township than we ever did? Is it to GENUINELY protect the citizens of Bensalem and fight REAL crime, or is it to draw in more money for the police department while doing nothing to reduce crime in Bensalem? Why do we have 2 members of the police department assigned to the DEA office in Philadelphia? Besides bringing money into the township for working investigations in Philadelphia, they do nothing for the people in Bensalem. How about the UNIFORMED police officers with take home vehicles that hold high ranking doing jobs within the police department that could be done by civilian personnel at a much reduced rate? At the same time, these officers could be assigned to the streets and neighborhoods to protect our community. Why is this NOT being done??
Why was an assistant needed in the road department to assist the Public Works Director who is often absent to run his business? Lucky for us tax payers a member of the Mayor’s staff had a relative with no experience in the public works field who needed a government job. It turns out, the Public Works Director had a relative who needed a government job too. His relative is now an assistant in License and Inspection. Why is this occurring?? How about Dawn Davis?? What are her qualifications for being head of public relations??
These are just some of the MANY questions that need to be asked. As a matter of fact, IAM ASKING THEM NOW!! The ‘answers’ you gave Your Majesty will NOT cut it with the people of this town, and I pray that they develop a spine and do what they said they intend to do, and that is to..........
VOTE YOU OUT!!!
