The Fiduciary Responsibilitie is the responsibility of the elected board members. If you were educated on the state and federal laws governing our retirement system, you would know this. When was the last time you attended a MPERS meeting? I am sure never. You need to keep you mouth shut as to not expose your ignorance.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7191599071198288307.post-85489624006108754682011-11-09T20:52:49.112-06:002011-11-09T20:52:49.112-06:00Hey, why is everybody upset?

And the Boot Ranch course was a mistake from the beginning. Lots were going for over 100K, and the city of Fredericksburg Tx was aginst them even being there. Why? The course would have taken the majority of their water for course use, leaving them without adequate water for the town. This was Hal Sutton's "baby" and he obtained the money from the MPERS system. Every member who voted for this purchase (it was not unanimous)should be held accountable. Retirees have not had a COLA in years. I bet I know who profited from this. It's time to hold them accountable.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7191599071198288307.post-91447594887687761492011-11-07T13:16:15.786-06:002011-11-07T13:16:15.786-06:00I agree.

Her investigation was thorough and exhaustive, and listed some of the names mentioned in these posts. None of them would comment of course. But they profitted immensely with free golf trips nationally and internationally, after voting among themselves to purchase three golf courses with MPERS money. I want to see some more indictments--maybe Zinna would like a prison sentence reduction if he cooperates. Then throw them in the same joint.

I think we already covered this in earlier topics. This city will continue to go downhill as long as Jimmy Hall is the city attorney and David Montgomery is a city councilman. McWilliams is doing what is necessary to bring respect back to our department. Calling him a drunk is slanderous and ridiculous unless you have some incident which you can refer to that proves your statement. I will agree with you on one point. There is one deputy chief that needs to retire. I still believe but can't prove that he was forced to promote Royce Chapman. You just have to understand the position McWilliams is in. Piss off Jimmy Hall and get fired or wait it out till the elections and hopefully the voters will remove these idiots we have running the city.
