Comments on: Local Media (Un)Covers City Election https://boiseguardian.com/2019/10/30/local-media-uncovers-city-election/ A different slant on the news. Wed, 06 Nov 2019 05:14:03 +0000 hourly 1 https://wordpress.org/?v=6.9.4 By: note to western guy for his friend https://boiseguardian.com/2019/10/30/local-media-uncovers-city-election/#comment-107142 Wed, 06 Nov 2019 05:14:03 +0000 https://boiseguardian.com/?p=16059#comment-107142 That is against the law to pressure your employees regarding how to vote. Your friend should blow the whistle.

What, has Bieter promised better wages but still cutting stations? The library is not getting better wages yet promoting a huge albatross. What a juxtaposition.

Does he (DB) think he is one of them (BFD)?

I’m guessing same at Fire Dept.

If there’s a run-off, expect double the pressure from The Team.

But, I already voted so no pressure this weekend.

Dave Bieter can do no wrong… he said so and he is god of Boise. I’m sure the BSU-Radio reporter will be terminated for failure to respect this Bieter is god policy.

I’m pretty sure that City policy also says that you can’t end your tenure on vacation – you have to come back on the clock for at least one day. Otherwise you take the payout. I could be wrong about that. Regardless, the Mayor can’t obfuscate his way around this one. It is made very clear to City employees from the moment that they are hired that there will be NO political activity while on City time. This is a common professional standard for government employees on any level. It was ignored when City employees worked on the foothills levy and the Open Space levy. The Mayor, then and now, openly advocated for both, contrary to law. Fire ignores their responsibilities to be apolitical. And now we learn that the Mayor’s staff is pulling double duty. I’ve said it before: this Mayor runs a political machine and makes no bones about it (no pun intended, Mr. Police Chief.)
