Does it seem strange to anyone that Parking Authority Chair Adam Devaney's resignation dated 8/12/2009 was read to Council only after the initial hearing on the backing of the Borough guarantee of a loan to the Parking Authority? For those with limited math skills, that is 26 days lag time between the letters date and the date it was officially announced to the public.

Two years ago, the Republicans used the phrase "Back Room Man" to paint the past Council President as one that did his job in complete secrecy. I hope history repeats itself.
