Is he any relation to the Longoria on our city council? If so isn't that a conflict of interest? Maybe that is why the city council changed the ethics board make up so they could just sweep this one "under the rug"?
What conflict of interest? This person isn't doing business with the city.
Well he may be related to coouncilman Joe Longoria and that is probably why he got the job. What if he gives Joe part of his salary since they only hired him because he was related to a high ranking official.
You are kidding, right?
No, not at all. He is not what you think. Behind the big goofy smile and gray hair, he is sneaky and would do something like this to help out his brother at the taxpayers expense. Just like he is trying to gat Crooked Creek. Who do you think will gain personally from that? Both of them.
Hogwash! He only wants to thank Tim for the logo and eliminate gas stations. He drives an electric Porsche you know.
For years, residents of the east side of Milton urged Tina D'Aversa, Julie Zahner Bailey and Alan Tart to do something about the traffic problems on Highway 9and Cogburn Road. THEY DID NOTHING!
I am thrilled that Joe Longoria is listening to residents and actually trying to do something that solves our problems.
If the current members of City Council are not trying to solve your problems - related to speeding, public safety or whatever - vote for someone who will.
This isn't about helping with traffic and safety but getting his frickin deadbeat brother a job, last poster. Get a clue!
Someone needs to bring him up on ethics charges.
Karen would be the expert at finding someone to do that, but she has probably run out friends, or ex-councilmen?
