Update/Edit: Based on good feedback from an anonymous poster I have updated this article accordingly in terms of placement of where I state the facts.
Beth Mason sent out a flier this weekend stating the incompetence and mismanagement over the City's early retirement policy spearheaded by Mayor David Roberts:
Note: The bottom of the flier said "Paid for by Friends of Beth Mason for City Council". Keep in mind that Beth Mason has filed her ELEC D-1 report declaring her run for Mayor received January 22, 2009. I was just making a point about where the funding of the flier is coming from. If someone was donate money right now to her I feel they should know what fund it is going to. That was and still is my only point.I have little doubt that she will formally announce soon but that is up to her and he professional campaign staff as to determine the best time to announce.
Opinion: I do view Beth Mason as key person out there that has fought hard for more governmental transparency. At this point, do not consider this an endorsement or that my opinion is that her record is perfect on this objective but it is this editor's attempt to let you know where I am coming from and judge my blog accordingly. It is simply giving credit where credit is due. Feel free to comment on this as well. Let the discourse continue.....
