More Proof City Hall Is Broke

(Second in a series)
 
     It is fascinating to me, a recently retired Culver City Hall Accounting Manager, hearing opposition to the proposed City Manager version of the City Charter: “If it’s not broke, why fix it?” 
     Given the next Charter review may be twenty-five years from now, and I have worked in two City Manager- type of cities, I feel an urgency to encourage city residents to vote Yes to Measure V on April 11.

Proof That the System Is Broke

It’s interesting to me — Culver City Accounting Manager, recently retired — hearing opposition to the proposed City Charter:

“If it’s not broke, why fix it?” 
            Sorry, finance and personnel functions are broken as is the selection process for an important financial management executive. Failure to fix them means employees waste time and taxpayers’ monies while exposing the city to unnecessary risks in exchange for no financial gains. 
          You deserve better from your city government with about seven hundred  employees annually spending hundreds of millions. This government needs to operate more businesslike, and you can  do something about that in the April 11 election.
