Resolutions

Our crack Massillon Review research team showed up at Massillon City Council last night, and was able to retrieve a copy of the City of Massillon's New Year Resolutions list.

We share them with our faithful readers as a public service.

Taxman Dave Hersher resolves to find new and creative ways to raise our taxes in 2011.

Parks Czar Kenn Kaminski and Streets Superintendent Mike Stevens resolve to rack up even more egregious, unneeded overtime while the city goes broke.

Mayor Cicchinelli resolves to blame someone else when the city goes broke.

Councilman Larry Slagle resolves to end lunches for city employees.

Auditor Jayne Ferrero resolves to cover the mayor's back no matter how poorly he treats her.

Councilman Donnie Peters resolves to continue to utilize tact and diplomacy when dealing with his fellow council members.

The Mayor and his administration resolve to continue to not have a business plan for Club Legends, the restaurant at the golf course that Glenn Gamber, Ron Mang, Taxman Dave Hersher, David McCune and Larry Slagle voted to spend $199,000 to buy last year. Heck, its only been 10 months, why the rush?
