Longtime City Treasurer Paul Lambert is retiring at the end of December with one year left on his four year term. So who will replace him? Multiple faithful Review readers have emailed us about a potential replacement, so it looks like this particular rumor has some traction.
Word on the street is that our former First Lady for Life, Joy Cicchinelli, wants to be Massillon's next Watchdog of the Treasury.
Last we left Joy, she was bitterly complaining to Massillon School Superintendent Goodright, and a Massillon School Board member that then Mayor Elect Kathy Catazaro Perry was presenting the trophy at the 'Mayor's Cup Girls Basketball Tournament.'
Joy's beef was that Catazaro-Perry wasn't mayor yet, and shouldn't have been allowed to present the trophy.
It was the evening of December 30th, 2011, about one day before Catazaro-Perry officially took over the debt riddled mess known as Massillon City government.
Of course, neither Cicchinelli was in attendance for the basketball tournament.
As a matter of fact, they never came.
And why should they? It wasn't something important like High School Football.
The problem wasn't that the current mayor never came, it was that the mayor-elect came in his stead.
And Joy was not a happy camper.
It is believed that Joy has been busily spending her free time spewing venom against her husband's successor throughout cyberspace.
You know, constructive work for the good of the city.
We, however, believe Joy Cicchinelli would be an inspired choice for city treasurer, and whole heartedly endorse this endeavor.
Her level headedness, rational behavior, and her tendency to never overreact are qualifications making her well suited to this position.
Besides, how hard can the job be?
As a result of the financial black hole our Extraordinary Former Mayor left us in, there isn't a whole lot of money left to count.
The big question?
Whether or not Joy would sign the current mayor's paycheck every week.
