<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Agreed, and I think, although I am all for any
legal tactics and procedures that may become necessary to keep the State Plate
facility in our program, I have always had serious questions about the legality
of "suspending the rules" tactic that the commission Board has used at least
once before regarding the Business Enterprise Program. It's high time that
someone who is "somebody" asks for a memorandum of advice
from the AG's office on this matter.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>I can't help saying that none of the current
problems would be biting us in tender places if the BEP had only done its job in
the first place.</FONT></DIV>

<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>By tthe way Joe and all I can find nothing in PA
260, statute or regulations where the SLA, the EOC, or the MCB can abridge or
otherwise alter the conditions of PA 260 period. End of story.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Only the legislature can amend or repeal PA 260.
Ironic eh given the location at issue?</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Oh and when Zanger talks about the legislators or
legislature being unhappy she is blowing smoke and outright
lying.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>For she is actually talking about building
managers being unhappy.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>The last time I checked they were state employees
and not elected officials ergo legislators.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>I don't see any State Rep. or State Senator
designation on any bloody building manager in this state.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Besides even if it were the case that would be a
violation of various conflicts of interest laws...But I
digress...</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>If the Commission votes to rubber stamp Cannon
and zanger's so-called "one time exception" then they are derelict in their
duties and their sworn obligation to uphold PA 260 and other relevent laws as
their primary obligation.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Now, I'm not saying the Commissioners would do
that mind you. It is a hyhypothetical situation.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>But here is something clear the Director and
Zanger have scheduled a special meeting for February 8, 2012 to try to have
the MCB Commissioners rubber stamp illegal activity and to effectively rubber
stamp violations of PA 260.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>For that alone Cannon and zanger should be
summarily fired on the spot and for cause, documented cause at
that!</FONT></DIV>

<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Here it is, minus the first few minutes due to
either operator error or minor equipment malfunction.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Sorry to say that we're still being forced to
fight for every scrap of information that used to be available for the
asking and that is required by federal law. I say that certain people
in high places are afraid of what might happen if the people they've been
lying to, their bosses, their political contacts, their clients etc. should
find out what has truly been going on at MCB and the BEP for many
years.</FONT></DIV>
