Great article, I think its ridiculous that some people are calling for his resignation over this.…Read More Was it a dumb thing to do? Sure it was, especially when he knows there are certain people in this town just salivating at any chance to get up in arms about this administration. To me it's just a shirt and whoever is making them is probably going to see a boost in sales stemming from this.

Jessica's previous two posts in other city's patch pages, with the exact same title (just school…Read More district name changed) have been moderated/deleted. Recommend this corporate advertisement to get the same fate.
The concerns are true, but it's an ad nontheless.

Not a very big deal to me, not a particularly smart move , but it's not a huge deal . Some of you…Read More are gonna flip out about it because that's just what you do. Get a life and move on. That being said rob is right about being a representative of this city and acting like it .

Ridiculous. How about we pay him for 24hours of 'representing NL' if the disgruntleds want every…Read More city employee to be 'professional' at all times? "we pay your salary, so we get to dictate your entire life...p.s. we hate your boss...wait! correction...we really don't like your boss"

Very good comparison. I also wanted to add that the Ct. College students that believe what Finizio…Read More has to say remind me of The Children of the Corn. After speaking with a friend we realized that Mayor Finizio is like a college student. I just wish he knew that real life does not work this way. New London has already played this game with the Giordano lady years ago. Remember her she was from Ct. College and also was going to make New London a hip city. We got homeless people and brownfields. So much for that idea. Been their done that. How about a new idea for once. Please don't think about shutting down State St. that too was a bad idea. Just ask Mr. Hyslop and Ms. Glover how their ideas worked out. It doesn't matter anyways it's all about the votes and getting your Children of the Corn on the Council. I mean come on drivers licenses for illigals who ever thought that one up.

I'd say more like G.I. Joe vs cobra, oh no wait, He man vs skeletor or maybe even the thundercats vs…Read More mumra! Lol

Here's the latest Spencer from the AP, if we can believe them:
Traffic in southwest Connecticut…Read More could be a mess for as much as a week until service is restored to the commuter rail line affected by a derailment that injured scores of passengers, Gov. Dannel P. Malloy warned Sunday.
Carol Haley May 19, 2013 at 05:26 pm
I read that Malloy is hoping Monday but there are problems with the tracks and that has to be…Read More repaired. Taking a guestimate, if it isn't Monday, maybe the end of the week.

I would say that the Collective Bargaining Agreement would have to be looked at for his Union.…Read More Mr. Hathaway is not in Local 1378. He is MEU. I would say, that this is an interesting question for our members. Local 1378's CBA does not go into this language, however it does state that prior to reorganization, the union must be notified to bargain the impacts (not exact language). This is not to say that the union has final say, or say at all as to how the administration shall operate, but the impact to the employees is what matters as well as the position in general. I will look into this language in reference to the Charter and forward it to the MEU as well. Thank you.

The following is from NL's Charter, Sec 46. Does it mean that Bill Hathaway would be entitled to a…Read More public hearing?
"...Any officer or employee so removed, suspended, laid off or reduced in grade shall, if he so request, be furnished with a written statement of the reason therefor, be allowed a reasonable time for answering such reasons in writing and be given a public hearing by the officer making such removal, suspension, lay-off or reduction in grade, before the order therefor shall be made final..."

I have not seen any details other than word of mouth at this time in reference to more being added…Read More to the pension plan after two years. I would not be surprised. This would be another instance in which the charter was violated and would have to be mentioned to the Admin. Committee. I would be willing to gamble that they were put into the employee pension plan as well.

I cannot believe that they lied! Who could have seen this coming.

Pretty funny Spencer. But you don't want a museum there. You need something that generates taxes.…Read More Museums are mostly non-profit thereby not generating any taxes. I know you were being funny. I was disgusted to read the developer couldn't show financial backing.
