They are crooks with a license to steal. In other words: Dirty, Rotten Scoundrels. Not only are they dramatically over-paid for what they do, they have the moxie to accept a vehicle stipend...which the tax payer pays. These are PUBLIC workers. They are living like the rich... considering the average U.S. income is about $44,000 per year. Greedy...Thieving Crooks. It really is that simple. Simple. They are crooks with a license to steal.

Former Director of Police Rich Casler, then Human Resources Director Darold Pritzer, and just last week Director of Community Development Chris Huff all were fired by Villae Manager Ken Fritz without notice or explanation. These were not regular retirments or friendly departures. That is some pretty significant turnover for major department heads. Could it be that these department directors were no longer willing to play the cover up game concerning expenditures, wasting of Village resources, and more importantly, unwilling to enforce the Village Manager's office henchman-like tactics of intimidating their employees and making sure that no one working for the Village starts talking about what really is going on with Village finances and waste?
