ReplyDeleteJust start here: First of all Charlie was hired by Ian Sanford to inforce State and Federal building codes for the safety of the community. When Charlie did his job and people with money and influence who wanted to cheat the system where prevented from doing that they ran and cried to Ian and bobble head council who instructed Charlie to ignore state and federal laws, let the brats with money have their way. Charlie refused to sign off on things that were against the law,and Ian was demaning him sign off on them. Ian himself signed the documents there were against the law. All of this came out in the civil service hearing. Ian was exposed as the complete and utter liar that he is. Never the less the civil service board was in his back pocket and did what he said. For those who don't know it is the job of the civil service board to protect city employees for rogue adminstrations that want to come in and clean house and put their own people in place. The civil service board is suppose to be their to protect their employees not do the biding of the council and the mayor. The civil service board took it up on themselves to recommend termination even though termination had never been recommended by Ian or the council. On the Logans all the had to do was update their fire extinguishers and they were out of date by several years. It would more than likely cost them $10 to fix this issue. A little more than the fire extinguisher. ASfter the corrupt civil service board refused to do their job and protect Charlies job from nothing more than a difference in personality between him and the former mayor. The case went to court where it was summarily dismissed by Judge Hatcher who said the evidence she has seen was that of a man doing the job he was hired to do and being harrassed by a group of vultures who simply didn't like Charlie. I am pharaphising of course. From what I can tell Shoalanda is woefully uniformed of the facts. Perhaps Shoalanda should exercise her right to not speak on things she clearly has no understanding of.
ReplyDeleteSome how, your screen name of "nojudging" doesn't quite fit.
DeleteAah the age old tactic of assaulting someone's character so you don't have to listen to the truth they are telling you. You seem to be mistaking speaking the truth for being judgmental,they are not the same thing.
ReplyDeleteThen you can prove the civil service board is corrupt?
DeleteGo read the transcripts of the civil service hearing and you be the judge.
ReplyDelete"Unknown" must be one of the jackals on the "civil service board" or one of the bobble heads from the previous council. So, Charlie's dad is the reason he has the job huh. I suppose you think his dad took all the tests for the certifications Charlie holds. Who is being laughable now? Let me explain something to you, not liking someone is in no way tantamount to them not doing their job. You are free to not like someone, but when you use that as an excuse to deprive someone of their lively hood, you have gone too far. I wonder how you would like it if someone you rubbed the wrong way started spouting nonsense about you and tried to cost you your job just because they didn't like you. And for the record, it took judge Hatcher about 30 seconds to dismiss the case against Charlie because of what I just told you. He was doing his job the way the law prescribed. If you don't like the way the laws are written, I suggest you take that up with your representatives that can actually change legislation instead of lashing out at the person hired to enforce the law. In the meantime, I hope you can grow up and learn to divorce your feelings about someone's personality from how the person actually perform their job because everything you said was a character assassination attempt with no actual evidence of a someone not doing their job. If you disagree with that, take it up with judge Hatcher. And by the way, Ian signed off on several inspections that Charlie refused to because they were not up to code. When one of those buildings falls in and kills people, you can thank Ian.
ReplyDeleteSo... Who's to blame for the continuing lack of code enforcement in Sheffield re: derelict vehicles, unkept yards, illegal dumping, etc? Calling City Hall does no good, even assuming someone answers the phone.
