City Councilman Ken Svoboda has been threatened by the city of Lincoln with the revocation of his contract to mow lawns for the city.
His excuse?
“When I’m not there, things don’t get finished,” said Svoboda, who oversees the company’s landscaping division.
This is a guy who is talking about running for Mayor of Lincoln next year and he can't keep a few kids with lawn mowers on task when he's not around? How does he really expect to manage a city government with about 2000 employees and a budget of over $130 million?
How come political insiders keep making more money off of government while the tax payers keep getting stuck with the bill? This is just the sort of thing that chaps my hide. I'm going to keep an eye on Lincoln's medians for the next year. Ken better shape up or he's going to hear about it!
