Really
Mayor Lyn Truitt thoughts on Councilman Joe Johnson as Vice-Mayor
Johnson named Surprise Vice-Mayor
SURPRISE, AZ (Jan. 9, 2009) District 5 Councilman Joe Johnson has been selected by the Surprise City Council to serve a one-year term as Vice Mayor.
.Because Mayor Lyn Truitt did not declare a call to the public, as reguired by law, I do not believe Johnson is legally Vice-Mayor.
I posted a comment on newszap.com about this, not to stir the Pot but to try to get the Citizen’s of Surprise involved.
I can’t be carrying the ball myself all the time.
If the City of Surprise erred, no big deal, all they have to do is hold another meeting and act or ratify this issue.
For their own Gain
Surprise Councilman Joe Johnson is full steam ahead on naming our tennis courts after himself.
New Council
How can we possible have accountability and transparency’s when we don’t receive answer’s to our questions.
Bell Rd up date Council Meeting 5/24/07
It was clear as mud what Councilmen Elkins and Johnson want to do with Bell Rd.
Councilman Elkins thinks that because they are working on Bell Rd East of Grand Ave that everything is O.K.
To understand where Councilman Johnson stands, watch the replay of the meeting and make your own conclusions.
I don’t understand, when council puts money in the budget to resurface Bell Rd why doesn’t the City Manager do it?
The problem is West of Grand Ave in case Councilman Elkins doesn’t know or does not want to see it. He must use Grand Ave to go to the city hall.
Citizens call for accountability
Letters from Surprise Independent, Feb.28,2007
While I find Councilman Joe Johnson’s animated response to criticism somewhat amusing, his lack of ethics is apparent by his disdainful attitude, his single-digit gestures and comments regarding citizens—they have no place at the council table.
It is true that the city has many issues besides the ethics policy, but one does not need look very hard at the council’s actions and spending records to see that fiscal responsibility and accountability dictated the ethics policy was long overdue.
At least Mr. Johnson admitted calling the policy “asinine” but one must wonder how he could associate taxpayers wanting accountability as being “politically motivated”. He also questions my “intent”.
Well Councilman Johnson , I have a fairly simple answer to that one. I intend to keep reviewing records and telling others just how much ethics are needed here in Surprise.
