Unethical Management of City of Atlanta Tax Payer Funds
To/Against/For: Unethical Waste of Tax Payer FundsTo: Governor Perdue, Honorable Mayor Shirley Franklin, and Atlanta City Council:
We as City of Atlanta Employees do not feel it is ethical to have:
- All of the unnecessary traveling done by Deputy Commissioner Sally Mills, Tracy Hillard, and Susan Redford
- Deputy Commissioner George Barnes getting a contract approved by City Council at one amount, but the PO is a higher value.
- All of the complaints in OCC (Office of Contract Compliance) against Deputy Commissioner George Barnes
- Deputy Commissioner Sammy Goodson taking sick leave then returning to only retire. But other employees are getting required to do his work while he gets his full salary.
- Unnecessary spending of tax payer funds to the company PrePrint to have a newsletter printed, that is not read or needed. But isn't that one of the objectives of the Communications area. Isn't that why all the ink is purchased monthly in bulk, but can't be accounted for. Isn't that what Joya L. Walker (Graphics Arts Specialist, Sr.) position is for. Why pay an employee for a job that you are getting vendors to do. These type of things can be done in house and money can be saved.
- For the Security Manager Rufus to be driving around employees Sabrina Hunter and Demetrius Johnson to lunch in a City of Atlanta issued White Ford Expedition. The gas in this vehicle that is being used by these employees for lunch is my tax money as is all other citizens of the City of Atlanta.
- To have take home vehicles being used for personal use
- Commissioner Rob Hunter's Executive Assistant (secretary) Mechelle Redding has been out on maternity leave since July and not scheduled to return to work until January but is receiving her full salary of greater than $75,000
- A receptionist being assigned a City of Atlanta tax payer paid cell phone (404)787-2317?
- To have Deputy Commissioner's hire their friends. Perfect example is Marc Anthony Cooper, Watershed Manager Sr., newly appointed DC Henson hired this individual because she was a student in his class. Don't get me wrong we all would like to help our friends but we all don't have the power and the unethical bone in our body. The pay grade 30 or 32 that this employee was brought in with could have been used on to save some of the employees that were let go..
- Items purchased with Field POs (so you don't have to get additional approval) and all of the laptops and computers that was purchased and can't be accounted for.
- Employees that are clocking other individuals in and out
- Employees (Safety and Security) that have received moving violations and parking tickets that have not been paid for or have not even been reprimanded.
- Counties that do not have IJ agreements.
- Invoices that are still unpaid because they didn't follow the correct procurement procedures. They just purchased what they wanted.
- Money that is being moved around to different accounts to cover other ones.
If you agree and are ready for things to change inside Atlanta City Hall and finally have some accountability amongst our leadership, please sign our petition to request a formal investigation by Governor Perdue and the Georgia Attorney General’s Office into the above concerns and many, many more unethical things
