4/1/14 & 4/15/14 Belfast City Council play dodgeball with public spending accountability.

4/1/14 Belfast City Council Meeting  http://belfastme.swagit.com/play/04012014-1068/#2 
 Click #6 open to the public ff to 5:56. I had sent an email to Council, Mayor and City Manager and am reading from that. Per the State of Maine Municipal Association property taxes go first to education and basic municipal services (fire, police, rescue services, trash disposal, road upkeep and upgrades, clean air, and enforcement of health and safety codes. After those are satisfied, than to libraries, recreation, etc. 

Click #7 communications ff to 2:55 Slocum, Hurley and David Smith take liberty to discredit me, they could have told me to stay, Joe didn't speak at all when I asked him for the documents. They know I leave. David Smith is my neighbor (does not own stream property) who harassed me the first month I moved in, 7/2010, He is a dog hater and was set to silence mine. Another neighbor 1/4 of mile away from him (3 lots up) owned a small dog- Yorkie? and David came to her house over and over. He could hear her dog bark through out the day. He would not let up, kept coming to her house and calling (just like me) The woman was forced to put a shock collar on her little dog to stop the harassment. She said her dog was, never the same, she has never forgiven herself, 


The Belfast Chief of Police, told me of a judge in Augusta, Me. ordered a dogs voice box removed due to a complaining neighbor. No doubt, that is where David was going with this. I beat him to the Chief, had the Chief come to my house to see all I did with a 5 ft fence and 100% screening, told him to put camera's on me to prove David was fabricating. David went to the Chief a week later, the Chief told him that I had gone above and beyond. David became irate, Chief came back to my house, and explained an order of protection to me. Lovely, if the Chief is telling me, I better do it. So I did. Welcome to Seaview Perish, I mean Terrace, AKA Hotel Hell on the outside- stay in, stay away, more thugs coming...:(

Click #11 for the 2nd time I come back for open to the public and fly with facts and proof.
it will go right into 12 with Hurley, Slocum and Marshall repairing their web. Marshall now coming up with a 1903 map. Big, big jerk. WE WILL DROWN AND DESTROY ANY NEIGHBORHOOD WE WANT TO. Not anymore, not on Joisey girl's watch. Slocum is delusional- stating that this a natural stream. The 1987 Belfast Engineer report, the original plans, all the paper proof he has tried to hide proving he is lying, and the biggest proof of all- following the water. 

Please provide the following years spread sheet cost accounting, 2011, 2012, 2013 and 2014 to current;
 1. Identify each lawsuit to the City of Belfast including all employees and include verdict,settlement and all fees.
2. Identify each and all in-house counsel fees.
 3.Identify each and all costs for grants, including application, if awarded, City funds contributed, including pending and final cost for each project clearly identifying total grant cost and monies received, vs. total City funds spent and those pending or underway to date.
 4. Identify each and all public money consultations/studies for all (recreation projects scrapped and/or approved, harbor walk, rail trail, parking, lighting, education/schools, capital projects, etc.) start to finish, underway and pending to date.
 Certainly this is valuable information to all with the upcoming budget and disaster we are facing. To try to extort research wages from me would be outrageous and a call for public outcry.

Click 6 open to public ff 7:50-12:06 (at 9:32, my word of the day BALDERDASH)

True to form, City Council and City Manager refuse to save Seaview Terrace from their corrupt ego's  I prove AGAIN that the City is force flooding via the BELFAST CONSULTING ENGINEER NEIL FINLAYSON reporting in 1987 that this is a drainage ditch. I show the picture of this ditch, in 6/2010 that was 2 ft wide and 2 ft deep. After spring melt in 2011- white water rapids tore through for days and days, ripping away over 600 ft of my property. Right up to my newly installed 6k fence. Just a bit more and away it would have went.
 
Click 7 communications or let it go right into it from Open to the Public. Listen to it all if you can bear it. 
City Manager, Joe Slocum committed to Seaview Terrace road work in the last meeting but wants to take the cheapest way out. Destroy more of our property with digging drainage ditches in our front yards that will soon look like my backyard ravine. 

They refused to plan and prepare by putting us in the TIF (Tax Increment Finance)and Mitigation Plan. They refuse to provide the 4 year spread sheet for spending on legal fees, grants, matching funds, capital projects, recreation, consultations/studies. I request this accounting again direct to my Council, Mary Mortier, ASAP before they start hacking away at the blue, pink and yellow collars, resident infrastructure and schools in this budget.

Councilor Hurley told me in the last meeting that I need to stay and wait for the communications portion where they will address the open to the public comments. They have taken the 5th in all meetings by orders of the City Attorney because each time they open their mouths they hang themselves. Sometimes they disobey the mighty one, unable to curtail their ego's.

Communications spotlights their true incompetence and dribble. It is painful to watch, and a true test of keeping my head out of the wall when I am in the same room as them. This meeting I award myself the "Hole-less Wall Award". 

FF to5:50/communications City Manager, Joe Slocum goes back to hiding behind the City Attorney (clearly he reads this blog since he had that 12/27/2011 letter in hand. Takes him 19 hours to find zero public documents for me but they are overflowing with their maps and documents for cover ups. I endure the dribble of his problems to get mud cleaned up around some poles, the public bathrooms being unlocked and locked, all during FLOOD TIME and mud season, concern only for City property.

Councilor Eric Sanders is status quo- rhetoric mediation much ado about nothing. At least he stopped picking his teeth and ears on camera. Nasty.


FF to 8:44 Incredibly, Councilor Nancy Hamilton, at communications, had this to say (sadly and surely she prepared this balderdash) Happy Tax Day. Because we are living here and seeing where our money goes, I think we are a little more accountable than the Feds. Hope to balance the needs of the taxpayers with the needs of the town.


FF 9:25 Hurley thanks me for mentioning the 1987 Belfast Consulting Engineers name, Neil Finlayson??? Giving us a personal rundown of how HURLEY knows Neil. WT* does this have to do with an engineer confirming Belfast City Hall corruption and the slaughter of Seaview Terrace???
  
4/15/14 Their cover up is beyond stupid and on our taxdollars, 4 years and counting. In 1987, the original owner, Dr. Caswell of my house(1967) and neighbors had been pleading for an investigation for flooding of yards and basements. The City of Belfast sent the City Engineer- Neil Finlayson (see full letter on www.belfastliars.blogspot.com)  SEE #3- "NOTHING MORE THAN A DRAINAGE DITCH" The liars blog are some early emails- 2011/12 from City Hall and my Councilor, Marina DeLune. I didn't post them before because I was trying to protect her. Her "constituents" set her up, she is just clueless and weak. Councilor Roger Lee was the one who convinced her to run, he is the treasurer at her church, she believes in him. Shameful.  As you read her emails, you will see they are feeding her false information to send me into an abyss of dismiss and break down. Getting so personal, trying to elicit sympathy from me when the City Manager was 5 months into his corruption, and recent tragic deaths in his family. Totally unethical and unprofessional. I was so angry that she did that to me. Councilor Hurley takes a public rant against me, Slocum and Marshall receive more pity. Pathetic. I feel sorry for them all. And the City Attorney, Bill Kelly speaking for them all and running out of the hall when I question him. The most pathetic of all. And they keep stroking each other as they go under from the misspending  of tax dollars, drowning the residents without a thought. Over and over and over again.

1987 Belfast City Engineer, Neil Finlayson
3.  Dr. Caswell has mentioned that after heavy rains the brook can flood and create problems for all owners whose lots back up to it. He suggests that the City clean it out to reduce this tendency.  I have a feeling that this brook is NOTHING MORE THAN A DRAINAGE DITCH PUT IN BY THE DEVELOPER OF THE TRACT. 

You could suggest to Dr. Caswell that his brook is private  property  and that if he, and other owners, feel strongly about the  problem, that the hire a contractor to clean out the brook to their specifications.


The City Attorney, Bill Kelly (1/4/12 Meeting)trying to use this with held public document, specific to my property, in his defense. Forced to admit that there is not a natural outlet when I uncovered the with held and buried 1967 development plans. Showing a ditch that was dug in the 60's (for run off from the 1963 construction of the new Rte 1) had to be pushed back. That is when the began the destruction and corruption to this area. Rather than build sewers and take it to City maintained property, the unleash it to private property and continue adding to us until present, over 15 developed large sites, thousands of acres, more than half paved, forcing it all to little Seaview Terrace, private property, flood zone, flood plain, no ROW, no easements...slaughter the 12 families with water and destruction. And deny it.

In the 4/1 meeting City Manager Joe Slocum continues to hang himself. The map he refers to, is in this link below. It is the ditch that was dug after the farm (apple orchard) was sold off. Land cleared and ditch dug for runoff from the new Rte 1. Surely, that was not ethcial or probably legal and the beginning of the slaughter by officials. Joe Slocum refuses to be reasonable, he and Wayne Marshall continue with their defense for slaughtering residents. Slocum cinches his neck right here" Whether that stream was moved or not makes no difference to us at all. There is no indication the City ever moved it. So, if it was moved from where her living room is today, to her backyard where it is today, it is still a natural stream." WWWHHAAAT???  Buffoon dribbling, costing us a fortune. City Planner, Wayne Marshall, Buffoon II, lops up to the podium with his new dribble for a 1907-1908 quad map showing A stream. Just stop it already, so sad. Where ever this stream was, it was not in the Seaview Terrace boundaries. But, hey- according to Joe- he can make a ditch anywhere and declare that a stream and drown those residents and treat them like dirt with full support of City Council, City Hall,  BPD, City Attorney, DEP, Attorney General,  the whole State backing up the corruption. Their reasoning for slaughtering residents is so twisted. manufacturing a stream to drown us- where they actually are bound to divert water and protect residents in a flood plain, flood zone. Unbelievable evil and calculated planning to abuse the innocent and struggling.

The local ordinance that Belfast City Hall refused to provide to me, the ordinance damning them day in, day out, as they consciously and intently slaughter Seaview Terrace, violating many more laws and ordinances. One inch of water is equal to 1 foot of water flying through my yard. Up to three inches- after that- I've yet to find out. Illegal stock piling of snow at all these sites all winter, 1000 acres or so, spring melt, heavy rain, buh bye Seaview Terrace. Survivors will file class action law suit. Buh bye Belfast. City Manager and City Planner will scurry away, pockets full, to the next town to drown.
Stormwater and all other unpolluted drainage may be discharged to such sewers as are specifically designated as storm sewers, or to a natural outlet approved by the city.Industrial cooling water or unpolluted process waters may be discharged, on approval of the city, to a storm sewer or natural outlet, if in accordance with regulations of the state department of environmental protection.

(Ord. No. 45-1999, § 600.2, 2-1-2000)


Everyone is involved from the real estate agents up to the Attorney General's office including Govenah LeRage. So much material, so many documented meetings, emails, unbelievable audacity and stupidity.

Councilor Mary Mortier,
 
I see the budget is underway, televised 4/22/14. Please advise if you are obtaining this critical information on City spending.  A concise spread sheet is necessary for ease of public review.

Your refusal to comply will be a very poor reflection on your accountability to the tax payers. Please respond today so that I may take appropriate action, ie, a petition and ombudsmen assistance.

Sincerely,

Laurie Allen

I. NEW STATUTORY FEE WAIVER STANDARD
Prior to its amendment in 1986, the FOIA provided for the charging of fees for document search and duplication, and further provided that such fees should be waived or reduced wherever that was found to be "in the public interest because furnishing the information can be considered as primarily benefiting the general public." 5 U.S.C. § 552(a)(4)(A) (1982).

Councilor Mary Mortier,

This is a poor response in support of cowardly corruption in Belfast City Hall. Reality sold in deception to the innocent and honest, by Belfast reality agents (below is your support in the reality corruption). Disgracing and disgusting the residents, children and visitors. 

I wanted to give another chance to step up, to be the Elizabeth Warren of Belfast. 

My request is to you and stays with you, my elected ward Councilor. I hold you accountable.

Sincerely,

Laurie Allen
