The Lodi taxpayers paid for research and an opinion
from Mr. Sciarrillo. It was initiated by
the superintendent for the superintendent. Multiple items (“doctrine of
necessity” research, preparation, review) appeared on the August invoices. Some appeared on the July invoices.
In early September, Mr. Quatrone told the papers that
Board members were undermining Ms. DiChiara by asking the SEC for an advisory
opinion.
When Mr. Quatrone made that comment to the papers, he
already had something from Mr. Sciarrillo on the matter. Where is it? It has been withheld from Board members for
months.
Certain people have been scheming for months to allow the
superintendent to choose who negotiates his own contract. Those with conflicts will give him whatever
he asks for.
The SEC clearly stated that the two members without conflicts
must negotiate and that “doctrine of necessity” cannot be invoked.
I have requested the attorney’s opinion at least four
times in the last month. I still haven’t
received it.
The Lodi taxpayers have the right to know that they
are being undermined and scammed once again.
Come January, 7 out of 9 board members are completely compromised and
should not be negotiating the superintendent’s contract. And that is exactly what they intend on
doing.
Here are some previous posts on the subject.
